- Abstract:
- Endoscopic drainage of the common bile duct by endoprosthesis has been advocated as an effective alternative to palliative surgery in the management of malignant occlusion icterus. Apart from other complications duodenal perforation may occur at the time of endoscopic insertion of the prosthesis. Perforation as a late sequel of endoscopic retrograde placement of such an endoprosthesis is rare. This paper presents the case of duodenal perforation eight days after implantation of a biliary endoprosthesis necessitating immediate surgical intervention.
