| Abstrakt: | Placement of a pancreatic duct (PD) stent for prevention of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) 1-3 often necessitates a second procedure for stent removal, generally within 2-4 weeks to avoid stent occlusion or injury to the duct. 4 These procedures are associated with increased costs and may result in procedure-related complications. Stents without internal anchoring flaps were developed to allow spontaneous migration into the duodenum, 5 thus obviating the need for a repeat procedure. However, radiographic confirmation of a migrated stent can be challenging. 6 . (Copyright © 2020 AGA Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.) |
