Abstract: BACKGROUND  The effectiveness of endobiliary radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is still uncertain, especially in patients with malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO). We examined the efficacy of endobiliary RFA followed by bilateral self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) placement… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0206694

Abstract: Background Most patients with distal extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma have developed jaundice or cholangitis at the time of initial diagnosis, which can delay surgery. We aim to evaluate the actual EB-RFA ablation volume and validated the clinical… read more here.
