Use of double biopsy forceps: A novel technique for safe removal of migrating stent after EUS-guided pancreatic drainage

Abstract

Highlight For migrating stent removal, Elshair and colleagues recommend using a double-channel scope and two biopsy forceps. The stent is fixed with one of the forceps and its proximal end is caught with the other while applying countertraction. The proximal end is cut, and the stent is safely removed through the duodenum.
