The majority of patients (up to 80%) with malignant obstructive jaundice will not be eligible for curative treatment. Palliative treatment of choice is the percutaneous or endoscopic placement of endoprostheses with a low periprocedural morbidity and mortality. The development of expandable metallic stents led to improved patency rates compared to plastic endoprostheses. Reocclusion rates of approximately 20%, however, necessitate further improvements to optimize design and materials of these stents.
大多数恶性梗阻性黄疸患者（高达80%）不适合进行根治性治疗。首选的姑息性治疗方法是经皮或内镜下放置内支架，围手术期发病率和死亡率较低。与塑料内支架相比，可扩张金属支架的应用提高了通畅率。然而，约20%的再闭塞率表明，需要进一步改进以优化这些支架的设计和材料。
