Abstract
Biliary complications following liver transplantation (LT) are a major source of morbidity, occurring in up to 15% of recipients. In current practice, plastic stents are typically used to manage post LT complications. However, metal stents have shown promise for treatment of benign biliary strictures. We report the long term efficacy and safety of using fully covered self expanding metal stent (CSEMS) with fins for the treatment of anastomotic strictures following LT.
