Abstract
- Endoscopic drainage of pancreatic pseudocysts is a new nonsurgical treatment modality. Among the cystogastrostomy and stent related complications, proximal migration of stent is rare and the correction of inserted stent into a pseudocyst is very difficult. We report a correction of an incidentally inserted pigtail stent into pseudocyst using a polypectomy snare.
