Kenny Vlaemynck et al. Endoscopic management of biliary leaks: a systematic review with meta-analysis
Network meta-analysis comparing sphincterotomy with stenting or a combination of both techniques in the management of biliary leaks. Compared with sphincterotomy alone, sphincterotomy with leak-bridging stenting had the highest success rate. For nonbridgeable leaks, stenting had a higher success rate than sphincterotomy (risk ratio 1.07, 95 % confidence interval 0.72 – 1.40).
