Abstract

This study from Rwanda provides crucial insights into the management and outcomes of obstructive jaundice from pancreatobiliary diseases. PTBD was demonstrated high success. While post-procedure complications occurred, the 30-day survival rate was favorable. Weight loss and ICU admission were associated with increased mortality, while procedural interventions showed protective effects, highlighting the importance of timely management.
