Biliary stent penetrating opposite duodenal wall

Not a common sight. We had gone for stent removal and attempt stone extraction (the patient had previously had cholangitis and stone extraction was incomplete. A plastic stent had been placed). The stent had penetrated the opposite duodenal wall, a closed perforation. We had to wrestle a bit with the forceps, pushing the stent back into the CBD. It was then removed with a snare.
