Stent showdown: double stents may clear tough bile stones in cirrhosis patients
NCT ID NCT07337291
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 400 people with liver cirrhosis who had large or complex bile duct stones that couldn't be removed during a first procedure. Doctors placed either one or two plastic stents to help drain the bile and make stones easier to remove later. The goal was to find the best stent choice for successful stone clearance and fewer complications in these high-risk patients.
