Biliary metal stents, also known as a bile duct stent, are useful for treating several complications of bile duct disorders. They have been shown to alleviate jaundice due to advanced bile duct cancer, drain excess bile, and open blocked arteries that are common in cases of bile duct cancer. Biliary metal stents may also reduce pain associated with pancreatitis. They are commonly used in gallbladder surgery to support surrounding blood vessels and decrease the risk of blockage.
