This 22 year old lady had undergone her second ERCP for an anastomotic biliary stricture less than month earlier http://ercp365.blogspot.com/2015/09/second-follow-up-ercp-for-post-liver.html when we had placed a 7 French 12 cm plastic biliary stent. She had developed cholangitis and pruritus soon after and her ultrasound did not show any pneumobilia. We suspected the sludge ball proximal to the previously deployed stent to be the culprit (Refer to images in the link above). We removed her blocked stent (A). Contrast injection again highlighted the narrowed anastomotic segment (B: Black arrow). A stent assembly was then manoeuvred across this site (C: Black arrow) and a wider 10 French plastic stent of 12 cm length was deployed (D1 & D2: Black arrows).
