A self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) is commonly used for biliary stricture caused by pancreatic cancer. Covered SEMS may obstruct the cystic duct, causing acute cholecystitis.

Among 80 patients with half-covered SEMS placement for the treatment of pancreatic cancer-induced distal biliary stricture, 74 were followed up. The half-covered SEMS has a total length of 6 or 7 cm, and the offset cov
