ABSTRACT Endoscopic biliary plastic stent (PS) insertion is standard for maintaining bile flow, but migration and dislodgement persist as important challenges. We developed the cross range flap stent (CRF stent), a 7 Fr, 7 cm straight‐type PS. Unlike conventional stents with flaps at both ends, the CRF stent features flaps and flap holes at the ...

ABSTRACT A 72‐year‐old man developed a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm (HAP) caused by a liver abscess due to acute cholangitis and choledocholithiasis. He was successfully treated by transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with tornado microcoils. Two years later, he developed severe acute cholangitis caused by a biliary stone formed around a coil ...
