Abstract

Benign biliary strictures (BBS) are difficult to treat. The majority of them are treated either endoscopically or using percutaneous techniques either with stents or conventional angioplasty balloons. To our knowledge we present the first case of use of a cutting balloon in the treatment of BBS through a percutaneous approach.
