The first case was 50-year-old male who had multiple intrahepatic stones with biliary stricture. The second 46-year-old female and the third 25-year-old male suffered from recurrent cholangitis with benign stricture of anastomotic site after choledocho-jejunostomy. In the first case, a 6mm diameter Grunzing dilatation balloon catheter was introduced through the T-tube tract. In the second case, the stricture was dilated with two balloons of 5mm and 8mm in each diameter sequentially through the U-loop tract formed by surgically made jejunostomy and percutaneous transhepatic puncture. In the third case, the dilatation catheter was introduced through the percutaneous transhepatic tract. Dilatation was made with a pressure of 5 to 10 atmospheres for 1 to 3 minutes duration for 3 times. In all 3 cases, the strictures were successfully dilated and in second and third cases internal stent was left across the lesion for prevention of restenosis.","","","","","Korea, Republic of","1986-06-15","","Korean","Journal Article","","3","22","Journal Name: Journal of the Korean Radiological Society; Journal Volume: 22; Journal Issue: 3","","Medium: X; Size: page(s) 317-322","","","","Journal ID: ISSN 0301-2867; TRN: KR1001006074626","https://doi.org/","","2012-12-20","21343748",""
