Plastic Stents

Compared to the endoscopy metal stents, endoscopy plastic stents are more cost-effective, and if the drainage is always unobstructed, the endoscopy plastic stent can be removed, while the metal stent is difficult to be replaced after installation. The choice of stents should be treated according to the specific situation. Under normal circumstances, endoscopy plastic stens are generally used for benign biliary diseases.

ERCP also allows internal biliary drainage and avoids the external catheter drainage that most patients dislike, with relatively small trauma, and the drainage tube will not be placed for a long time.
