Abstract    Biliary malignant tumors are prone to jaundice due to the specific location, affecting the liver and kidney function and prognosis of patients. For patients with obstructive jaundice caused by cholangiocarcinoma, it is still controversial whether routine preoperative biliary drainage is recommended. From the progress of research on the problem in recent years from the necessity, indications and methods of preoperative biliary drainage，the authors think that performing preoperative biliary drainage as routine in all patients is not rational. The total bilirubin level, volume of future liver remnant, age, nutritional status and other factors should be considered.

Key words: cholangiocarcinoma, jaundice, biliary drainage
