A tool for transhepatic stenting.
A modified method for transhepatic tube stenting is presented. The use of a No. 25 gauge music wire (1.5 millimeters in diameter) allows for different surgical maneuvers to be performed without parenchymal splitting. This technique can also be used in a slightly dilated biliary tree.
