Endoscopic treatment of pediatric post-transplant biliary complications is safe and effective

Background and Aim Biliary complications (BC) after liver transplantation (LT) are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Incidence of BC after pediatric LT is more than 10%. In adults, treatment by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP) is successful. As data in pedia...
