What is percutaneous biliary drainage? Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage is a procedure where a small, flexible, plastic tube is placed through the skin into the liver in order to drain an obstructed bile duct system. The liver produces bile which aids digestion of fats.

In these cases, you may be admitted to the hospital on the day of your procedure.
