Operative findings of the migrated stent into the abdominal cavity following endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy: Anchoring force of a novel self‐expandable metal stent with an anti‐migration system (with video)

Koga et al report an emergency surgery for stent migration during endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy, which revealed the strong anchoring force of a stent with a spring‐type stopper as an anti‐migration system at the proximal end. The stent could not be pulled out of the stomach wall a...

Description
Summary:Koga et al report an emergency surgery for stent migration during endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy, which revealed the strong anchoring force of a stent with a spring‐type stopper as an anti‐migration system at the proximal end. The stent could not be pulled out of the stomach wall and was removed via gastrotomy.
