Figure

  • Fig. 1. (A) Comparison between the 8-wire FlowerBaseket with small proximal mesh pockets (left) and a more conventionally designed basket (right). Patient 1: (B) Fluoroscopic illustration of the intraductal capture of a discretely migrated 5-Fr pancreatic stent below the level of the genu. (C) Successful transpapillary stent extraction and (D) reinsertion of a single-pigtail stent to reduce the risk of post-interventional pancreatitis and remigration.

  • Fig. 2. Patient 2: (A) Grasping of the distal stent end in a more proximally migrated stent above the genu with (B) successful endoscopic extraction through the papilla.
