Abstract
Background Despite its wide use, catheter tract recurrence after percutaneous biliary drainage (PBD) is rarely reported. However, one recent large-scale study reported a catheter tract recurrence rate as high as 5.2 % in patients with perihilar or distal bile duct cancer. We report on our 20 years of experience with catheter tract seeding after PBD for hilar cholangiocarcinoma.
