Objective: PTBD is an important lifesaving alternative for biliary tract decompression to endoscopic drainage in the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of PTBD in terms of the relief of symptoms and laboratory data, survival after PTBD, and the relationship between patient characteristics and survival during COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: During this study, in total thirteen patients’ procedures of percutaneous drainage were applied during a three-month period. The average age of men was 59 years and women was 55 years. The causes of obstructive jaundice were investigated using both abdominal computed tomography and abdominal ultrasonography. Results: In examined group percutaneous drainage was successful in 92.3% (12 patients) and drainage procedure application was ineffective in 7.7% (1 patient). After PTBD, almost all the symptoms of obstructive jaundice were relieved, except in one patient. Transient haemobilia was the only complication seen in one patient. Conclusion: In present scenario of COVID-19 pandemic, PTBD emerges as an effective method of biliary tract decompression and an important alternative to endoscopic drainage. It decreased the jaundice and relieved the symptoms caused by biliary tract obstruction. Thus, our study shows a positive impact in quality of life of patients after PTBD.

Study was conducted in Command Hospital (Eastern Command) Kolkata - ATertiary Care Hospital with the following Aims and Objectives. Study and co relate clinical, biochemical, radiological parameters in obstructive jaundice. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Study was conducted in Command Hospital (Eastern Command) Kolkata - A tertiary care hospital. All adult patients who was diagnosed as case of obstructive jaundice based on clinical, radiological and pathological criteria. Study duration 3 Years. Purposive sampling, 50 in each group,100. RESULT AND ANALYSIS: BENIGN OBSTRUCTIVE JAUNDICE, 6(12.0%) patients had FEVER. In MALIGNANT OBSTRUCTIVE JAUNDICE, 2(4.0%) patients had FEVER. Association of FEVER vs FINAL DIAGNOSIS was not statistically signicant (p=0.1403). In BENIGN OBSTRUCTIVE JAUNDICE, 4(8.0%) patients had PRURITIS. In MALIGNANT OBSTRUCTIVE JAUNDICE, 37(74.0%) patients had PRURITIS. Association of PRURITIS vs FINAL DIAGNOSIS was statistically signicant (p<0.0001). CONCLUSION: AST and ALP were higher in malignant obstructive jaundice compared to benign obstructive jaundice which were statistically signicant. Mean GGT was higher in malignant obstructive jaundice compared to benign obstructive jaundice which was statistically signicant. It was found that mean CA 19.9 was higher in malignant obstructive jaundice compared to benign obstructive jaundice which was statistically signicant.

Transhepatic Biliary Drainage

Results obtained in 70 patients with neoplastic (primary or metastatic) biliary obstruction and submitted to percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage indicate the effectiveness of the technique in relieving jaundice, improving general conditions and restoring liver function. In 25.4% of cases, the drainage allowed the patients to undergo surgical treatment of the neoplasm. In 74.6%, the drainage was left in place as definitive palliation. The complication rate was very low and similar to that described in the literature. At this time it is difficult to identify prognostic factors and foresee the results of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage, but the procedure is always indicated in patients at high operative risk or inoperable.
