Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatogram (ERCP) is performed under standard conditions with cannulation of the bile duct, and demonstration on a cholangiogram the location, diameter and length of the biliary stricture. The HabibTM EndoHBP probe (EMcision, London, United Kingdom) is advanced through the working channel of a side viewing endoscope over a 0.035in guidewire, and positioned across the occluded SEMS under fluoroscopy. 7-10W are usually delivered for 90 seconds with a standard high frequency generator, followed by a 1 minute resting period. Sequential applications of RFA are applied along the entire length of the stricture with an overlap of 1cm.

ERCP with SEMS plus radiofrequency ablation

ERCP with SEMS alone (standard of care)

Mark Schattner, MD

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects good and/or bad of combining radiofrequency ablation with placement of a second stent, versus a second stent alone. The investigators will also look at the safety of the combination treatment, and see which treatment is better. In either case, the second stent will be placed inside the existing stent as is done in standard practice when treating a blocked stent for the first time.
