Biliary drainage in Israel is performed by experienced specialists who use modern technologies and minimally invasive endoscopic techniques.
Biliary drainage in Israel involves the removal of bile using special drainage catheters. Doctors insert a catheter through a puncture in the abdomen, carefully monitoring the entire process using CT, MRI, X-ray, or ultrasound equipment. Biliary drainage of the common bile duct in Israel is performed on patients with a high level of direct bilirubin in the blood, which is a pronounced symptom of mechanical jaundice.
There are a number of ailments that can provoke mechanical jaundice: these include acute pancreatitis, gallstones, narrowing of the bile ducts, benign tumors of the pancreas, and oncological diseases of the liver and bile ducts. A high level of bilirubin leads to intoxication and depletion of the body, which can even result in the patient's death. Furthermore, progressive mechanical jaundice hinders the use of radiotherapy or chemotherapy for cancer treatment.
Biliary drainage in Israel is a guarantee of saving the patient's life, complete restoration of all bodily functions, and improvement of quality of life.
Types of Drainage and Their Features
External biliary drainage in Israel for elderly individuals is an alternative to surgery. This treatment method is a minimally invasive endoscopic decompression procedure that helps restore bile flow in cases of obstruction of the bile ducts.
A probe is placed in the patient to drain bile externally, eliminating its stagnation. At the same time, if necessary, a chemotherapy drug or a solution with radioisotopes for radiotherapy of oncological diseases can be introduced through the probe.

However, exact prices will only be provided after a diagnostic examination when the cause of the pathology and the overall health condition are clearly understood.
