Pancreatoscopy-guided retrieval of a migrated pancreatic duct stent

Year: 2022

Type: article

Abstract: A 26-year-old woman presented to an outside hospital with symptomatic cholelithiasis and underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy that was complicated by bile leak and intra-abdominal fluid collections. She underwent intraabdominal drain placement and an ERCP with biliary sphincterotomy and biliary stent placement. The ERCP was technically challenging and required a prophylactic pancreatic duct (PD) stent that was complicated by upstream migration and was unable to be retrieved. She was referred to our center for stent retrieval.
