OBJECTIVES: Anti-reflux metal stent (ARMS) has been used to prevent recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO) due to sludge formation or food impaction. However, the most suitable ARMS remains to be identified. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of biliary drainage using duckbill-shaped ARMS (D-ARMS).
METHODS: This was a multicenter, retrospective observational study conducted at three Japanese tertiary institutions. Patients with distal malignant biliary obstruction who underwent biliary stenting using D-ARMS were eligible to participate. Technical success, functional success, adverse event (AE), and time to RBO (TRBO) were evaluated.
RESULTS: Thirty patients underwent biliary stenting using D-ARMS from December 2018 to October 2019. The technical success rate and functional success rate were 93% and 87%, respectively. However, nonvisibility of the markers at the tip of the metal stent or spontaneous extension was occasionally observed, making biliary stenting using D-ARMS difficult. Early AE occurred in 10% of the patients including cholangitis and pancreatitis. During the median postprocedural observation time of 5.1 months (range, 0.8-22.8), RBO occurred in 33% and the median TRBO was 261 days. As for reintervention, D-ARMS could be extracted in 67% of the patients with RBO. However, the stent was torn off on removal in half of the patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Although some modifications are still needed, D-ARMS was feasible and safe for biliary drainage, and sufficient TRBO was achieved. Subsequent multi-institutional studies involving a larger number of patients and a longer follow-up period are warranted to validate the present results.
