BACKGROUND/AIMS: Endoscopic treatment for postoperative benign bile duct stricture (BBS) is a therapeutic challenge. No previous studies have compared endoscopic treatments for BBS and malignant bile duct stricture (MBS). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

AIM: To compare the outcome of endoscopic therapy for postoperative benign bile duct stricture and benign bile duct stricture due to chronic pancreatitis, including long-term prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Associated findings Associated findings are for example: features of chronic pancreatitis evidence of previous cholecystectomy lymph node enlargement infiltrating mass Treatment and prognosis Treatment and prognosis clearly depend on the underlying etiology [radiopaedia.org]

Outlook (Prognosis) Treatment is successful most of the time. Long-term success depends on the cause of the stricture. Possible Complications Inflammation and narrowing of the biliary duct may return in some people. [baptistjax.com]
