Abstract
Percutaneous drainage techniques are widely used to relieve biliary and urinary obstructions as well as to evacuate abdominal abscesses. These drainage techniques are less expensive, safer, and in many cases more effective than comparable surgical procedures. Proper follow-up care of catheters is essential, however, to achieve maximum effectiveness.
