“…As previous report, the incidence of infection after drainage in malignant obstructive jaundice is 14% -47% (De et al, 2013), cholestasis caused by biliary obstruction is advantageous to the bacteria breeding, and high bilirubin levels is easy leading to intestinal flora, intestinal mucosa barrier damage and bacterial translocation (Englesbe et al, 2005;Ozden et al, 2005). The rate of newly onset of infection after drainage reached 47.6% in our study, this infection rate is high.…”

“…Cholangitis is a severe complication of intervention on the biliary tree; a nonoperative biliary procedure is the triggering mechanism. Post-ERCP cholangitis occurred specially after cannulation, and incomplete drainage of a bile duct was injected [11]. The goal of this study was not to analyze if plastic stent is better than self-expandable metallic stents neither if two stents are better than only one neither how many liver volume is necessary to drain to achieve improvement in quality of life [22,23].…”

“…The end point of palliative management is to achieve improving quality of life (biochemical parameters normalization, biliary tree decompression, and relief of symptoms) [9]. Endoscopic biliary drainage has been considered as the palliative treatment of choice for these patients [6,10,11]. The overall cholangitis rate of ERCP is reported from 3.4% to 5.8%.…”
