A complex case of biliodigestive anastomosis stricture treated with biodegradable stent placement after endoscopic-ultrasound guided gastrojejunostomy

Abstract Text A 37-year-old man underwent Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy for complicated cholecystitis. Biliodigestive anastomosis stricture developed. Percutaneous placement of an uncovered metal stent (MS) was attempted, with proximal misdeployment treated with a second trans-stent, trans-anastomotic MS placement. A year later, migration of the distal MS occurred, with rupture of the proximal MS whose fragment was retained in the bile duct. An EUS-guided gastrojejunostomy (GJ) was created, allowing access to the biliodigestive anastomosis and a FC-SEMS was placed. One week later, SEMS was removed and the retained MS fragment extracted; two 10Fr x 5cm biliary plastic stents were left. After a month, the biliodigestive anastomosis was still accessed through the GJ, plastic stents were removed, and an 8mm x 5.5cm uncovered biodegradable balloon-expandable stent was placed across the biliodigestive anastomosis.
