Active Gallbladder Lavage Using a Double‐pigtail Plastic Stent Delivery System During Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Gallbladder Drainage (With Video)

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided gallbladder drainage using a double‐pigtail plastic stent (DPPS) harbors the risk of bile leakage and pneumoperitoneum through the anastomosis site. When the inner sheath of the DPPS system is retracted halfway back into the stent, multiple side holes emerge on the stent end, which accelerates the active gallbladder lavage.

Clip‐Centered Common Bile Duct Stones Managed by Endoscopic Sphincterotomy Plus Endoscopic Papillary Large Balloon Dilation Years After Cholecystectomy

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Migration of clips used in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is rare, but when a clip migrates into the bile duct, it can serve as a nucleus for common bile duct stone formation and trigger acute cholangitis. An elderly woman in her 80s underwent LC for cholecystolithiasis at another hospital in year X.
