[PMID: 38646799 PMCID: PMC11036911 DOI: 10.1177/23247096241238527] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 02/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Biliary endoprostheses are widely used in the treatment of biliary lithiasis, malignant and benign strictures, and occasionally in long-lasting biliary fistulas. They can be placed endoscopically during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and radiologically (percutaneous) when the endoscopic route is not feasible. Complications associated with the endoscopic placement of biliary endoprostheses are well described in the literature, with migration being the most common. Intestinal obstruction is a rare complication associated with the migration of these devices. There are no reports in the literature of this complication occurring after percutaneous placement. We present a case of a patient who arrived at the emergency department with ileal obstruction secondary to the migration and concurrent embedding of a covered stent placed radiologically to treat a biliary leak after surgery. The patient underwent diagnostic laparoscopic and ileal resection, revealing a lithiasic concretion at the tip of the stent, causing the small bowel obstruction.

Abstract
Biliary stents have been widely used to treat both malignant and benign biliary obstruction. Biliary stenting serves as a temporary measure to maintain ductal patency and promote bile drainage. Biliary decompression can help relieve clinical symptoms of pain, obstructive jaundice, pruritis, fat malabsorption, and failure to thrive and prevent disease progression, such as secondary biliary cirrhosis and end-stage liver failure. Endoscopic placement of biliary endoprosthesis is a minimally invasive procedure well tolerated by most patients but is not without problems. Multiple early and late complications have been reported in the literature and Computed Tomography (CT) is the most used modality to assess normal positions and evaluate patients suspected of stent complications. The aim of this article is to provide a review various of biliary stent related complications, as seen on CT. Current literature on risk factors, diagnosis and management is also discussed.

Abstract
Key Clinical Message This case highlights the importance of considering stent migration as a possible cause of intestinal perforation and the need for prompt surgical intervention. Abstract Endo-biliary stent displacement is rare but can cause intestinal perforation. An 85-year-old woman with a history of ERCPs and biliary stents experienced stomach pain and vomiting. She was diagnosed with small bowel perforation from migrated stents and underwent emergency laparotomy, bowel resection, and tension-free stapled anastomosis.

Int J Gen Med 2021; 14:9361-9369. [PMID: 34908865 PMCID: PMC8664340 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s338643] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2021] [Accepted: 11/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Sharp-pointed FBs with both sides embedded in the duodenal wall are rare. Compared with smooth edged FBs, sharp objects are more likely to be associated with significant adverse events, when penetrating the wall of the digestive tract. The clinical features of patients who experienced sharp-pointed FBs embedded in both sides of the duodenum were retrospectively analyzed, as were the efficacy and safety of endoscopic removal of these FBs. Patients and Methods This retrospective study included 21 adults with both sides of sharp-pointed FBs embedded into the duodenal wall who were admitted to the Second Xiangya Hospital in China between January 1, 1996, and May 31, 2021. Data associated with the endoscopic removal of these FBs were collected from the electronic medical record system (EMRS) of the hospital. Results The incidence rate of duodenal total FBs and FBs embedded in both sides was 8.87% and 1.03%, respectively. The success rate of endoscopic treatment was 100.00% in 124 patients without embedded duodenal FBs and 97.14% in 35 patients with one side embedded duodenal FBs. Of the 21 patients with FBs embedded in both sides of the duodenal wall, endoscopic removal was successful in 85.71% of patients, whereas 14.29% required surgery. FBs removed from these patients included toothpicks in 12; needles in 3; jujube pits in 2; and a chopstick, dentures, fish bones, and chicken bones in one each. Most of these 21 FBs were located in the bulb and descending duodenum, followed by the third part of duodenum. Conclusion Sharp-edged FBs with both sides embedded in the duodenal wall are rare. Endoscopic removal may be considered as a feasible, safe, and effective method of removing sharp-pointed FBs with both sides embedded in the duodenal wall. And if endoscopic removal is unsuccessful, surgical management can be a secondary option.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bowel perforation from biliary stent migration is a serious potential complication of biliary stents, but fortunately has an incidence of less than 1%. CASE SUMMARY We report a case of a 54-year-old Caucasian woman with a history of Human Immunodeficiency virus with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, alcoholic liver cirrhosis, portal vein thrombosis and extensive past surgical history who presented with acute abdominal pain and local peritonitis. On further evaluation she was diagnosed with small bowel perforation secondary to migrated biliary stents and underwent exploratory laparotomy with therapeutic intervention. CONCLUSION This case presentation reports on the unusual finding of two migrated biliary stents, with one causing perforation. In addition, we review the relevant literature on migrated stents.

JGH OPEN 2021; 5:968-970.

Abstract
As a diagnostic and therapeutic treatment role on malignant biliary obstruction, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has already been used as a routine procedure, especially for palliative treatment on advanced stage peri‐ampullary tumor. This minimal invasive procedure has many early or late complications such as bleeding, post‐ERCP pancreatitis, perforation, cholangitis, and the rare duodenal perforation from the stent migration. The current review reported the incidence of stent erosion associated with duodenal perforation was only 1% for this palliative procedure. We report a 75 years old male patient with diffuse abdominal tenderness 7 days after palliative ERCP stent placement for malignant biliary obstruction, metal stent could not be placed, and plastic stent placement had been done. There was no post‐ERCP pancreatitis found during the first 24 h. The patient came to the emergency with clinical sign and symptoms of diffuse peritonitis; abdominal X‐ray found no free intraperitoneal air. Exploratory laparotomy was performed, and we found bile leak from the third part of perforated duodenal with 5 mm in diameter, plastic stent exposed from the perforation site, and no active bleeding. We performed primary suture of the duodenum, cholecysto‐enteric bypass, pyloric exclusion, gastro‐jejunostomy bypass, and braun anastomosis. Jejunostomy feeding has been placed. There were no postoperative cardiopulmonary complication, and the patient could tolerate well for oral intake and discharged from hospital at 10th postoperative day (POD). This rare duodenal perforation complication could happen even in plastic stent placement during the ERCP procedure, and early management was needed to gain the favorable outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The frequency, risk factors as well as the sites of biliary stent migration are variable in the literature. This retrospective study investigated the frequency of biliary stent migration, why biliary stents migrated, how the migrated stents affected the patients, and what are the different techniques retrieved the migrated stents. PATIENTS AND METHODS Out of 876 stented patients, 74 patients (8.4%) had their stents migrated. Patients with and without migrated stents were compared regarding endoscopy and stent-related parameters. The sequels of stent migrations were reported. Furthermore, the methods used for stent retrieval were reviewed. RESULTS Proximal and distal stent migration occurred at a rate of 3 and 5.5%, respectively. The independent predictors for stent migration were moderate to marked common bile duct (CBD) dilation, complete sphincterotomy, the use of balloon dilation, and stent insertion for more than 1 month. Cholangitis and stent obstruction was the most commonly reported adverse event (n = 18, 24.3%). Distal stent migration associated with two cases of bleeding due to duodenal wall injury, and two cases of duodenal perforation. All the retained migrated stents in the current study were retrieved by endoscopy using extraction balloon, Dormia basket, snares, and foreign body forceps. CONCLUSION Biliary stent migration occurs at a rate of 8.4%. Stents do migrate because of dilated CBD, wide sphincterotomy, and biliary balloon dilation. Furthermore, wide, straight stents inserted for more than 1 month easily migrate. The migrated stents migrated intraluminal in the CBD, duodenum or the colon. All the retained migrated stents were retrieved endoscopically.
