    Abstract:
    Migration of endoscopically placed biliary stents is a well-recognized complication of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Less than 1% of migrated stents however cause intestinal perforation. We present a case of a migrated biliary stent that resulted in duodenal perforation and biliary peritonitis.
