Video Summary

A 79-year-old patient with a history of previous surgeries presented with cholangitis and complications including a biliary stone and biliary dilatation. Due to the patient's altered anatomy, traditional procedures were not possible, so percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography and lithotripsy were performed successfully. An adenomatous polyp was also discovered above the anastomosis during the procedure. Biopsies confirmed low-grade dysplasia. The patient responded well to treatment, and a percutaneous transhepatic drain was left in place. Following the procedure, the patient's cholestatic biochemistry improved significantly.
