Pediatric Interventional Radiology biliary procedures are mainly performed on patients with liver transplant. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiogram (PTC) is very useful for diagnosis of post-surgical development of strictures while at the same time allowing access for therapeutic measures such as biliary dilatation and diversion. Although post-surgical anatomy and non-dilated bile ducts may provide a challenge, biliary procedures have a high rate of success. The purpose of this exhibit is to review the biliary anatomy, discuss the available biliary procedures, including step-by-step explanation of the more common procedures and discussion of goal and outcomes of these procedures.

Biliary stenosis continues to be an important source of morbidity in pediatric liver transplantation. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) with cholangioplasty and placement of an internal/external biliary drainage catheter has been the standard of care for biliary stenosis at our institution for over twenty years. The purpose of this article is to present the largest and most comprehensive pediatric series to date detailing the percutaneous management of liver transplants complicated by biliary stenosis.
