title: [Biliary decompression by tumor drilling and endoprosthesis with a hepatocholedochal tube in a case of cholangiocarcinoma].
abstract: The paper reports on the case of an 82-year-old patient, operated for a cholangiocarcinoma with high location, involving the bifurcation of the hepatic ducts. The surgery consisted of an endo-lumen tumoral drilling, followed by assembling two tubes introduced in the hepato-choledochal canal for ensuring the internal biliary drainage. A survival of more than 30 months was obtained. The authors show the possibility of using this palliative method, followed by a good result when a radical surgery cannot be used.
