Su1433 LOW CLINICAL SUCCESS RATES AND HIGH COMPLICATION RATES IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING PERCUTANEOUS TRANSHEPATIC BILIARY DRAINAGE AFTER FAILED ERCP: RESULTS OF A LARGE TERTIARY CENTER

Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) has been the preferred modality for biliary drainage when ERCP is unsuccessful. Older studies have shown high complication rates, however this may have improved in the last few decades. As newer alternatives, including EUS guided drainage, are evolving quickly, updated results on the outcomes of PTBD are crucial. We aim to assess the success and complication rates of PTBD in a large tertiary hospital.
