Efficacy and Safety of Multihole Partially Covered Self‐Expandable Metal Stents for Distal Malignant Biliary Obstruction: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Covered self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) are the standard for managing unresectable distal malignant biliary obstruction (DMBO), as they prolong the time to recurrent biliary obstruction (TRBO).
