Cover Story: Biliary stents are inserted into the extrahepatic bile ducts (EHBD) when the flow of bile out of the liver or gallbladder is disrupted. Our aim was to 3D print an anatomically accurate model of the EHBD with tissue-like mechanical properties to improve in vitro testing of biliary stent prototypes. EHBD models printed in Formlabs Elastic resin possessed the most bile duct-like mechanical properties based on its elastic moduli, percent elongations at the break, and changes in mass when exposed to simulated bile. EHBD models sustained no damage during stent deployment and provided a high level of visualization of deployed stents. Vew this paper
