Migratory Stent Leading to Ileal Perforation Less Known Complication of Therapeutic ERCP

چکیده
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has a vital role in the diagnosis and management of various biliary and pancreatic diseases but is also associated with adverse events. Commonly seen complications are pancreatitis, bleeding, cholangitis, cholecystitis, postspinchterotomy strictures and perforation. Migration of stents, which is more with plastic stents, is a well-known complication of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography however less than one percent of migrated stents end up in intestinal perforation. Moreover perforation of the ileum years after migration of ERCP stent is hardly heard off. The literature also reports very few cases of small bowel perforation by migration of biliary stents.

Usually, distal migration is asymptomatic and is detected incidentally. Case Presentation: We present a rare case of duodenal perforation caused by distal migration of a biliary stent. A 50 years old gentleman initially...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Performing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in patients who have undergone Rouxen-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is challenging. Standard ERCP and enteroscopy-assisted ERCP are associated with limited success rates. Laparoscopy- or laparotomy-assisted ERCP yields improved efficacy rates, but with higher complication rates and costs. We present the first multicenter...
متن کاملEndoscopic Treatment for Duodenal Perforation during ERCP
Gut perforations during ERCP and stenting or due to migration of stents are very rare complications, with an incidence of well below 2%. Moreover, direct duodenoscope-induced lateral or medial duodenal wall perforation is much less common, accounting for 0.1% of patients who undergo ERCP, but tends to be large and further away from the ampulla. Duodenal perforations from the superior duodenal a...

INTRODUCTION Therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) was initially utilized at Binh Dan Hospital, Viet Nam, in August 1993. From August 1993 through March 1997, 318 ERCP procedures were performed on 271 patients. It was not possible to obtain cholangiography in 32 cases of the 318 procedures of ERCP, for a success rate of diagnostic ERCP approaching 89%. MATERIALS AN...
