The majority of these migrating stents are passing through the intestine, without causing any complications. Usually when a stent migration occurs, endoscopic retrieval is the proper treatment option, except in case of complications when surgical removal is the only treatment option. This report presents a case of a biliary stent which migrated and caused a sigmoid colon perforation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>PRESENTATION OF CASE:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 75 years old female patient presented to the emergency department with diffuse abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. Clinical examination showed distended abdomen and signs of peritoneal irritation.<\/jats:p>\n                    <jats:p>CT scan of the abdomen revealed free gas and fluid in the left iliac fossa, as well as a foreign body penetrating the sigmoid colon. Emergency laparotomy was performed. A plastic stent was found perforating the sigmoid colon through a diverticulum. The rest of the sigmoid colon was intact presenting only uncomplicated diverticula. Hartmann\u2019s operation was performed, involving the diseased segment, together with part of the descending colon due to profound diverticulosis. Patient\u2019s post-surgical course was uneventful and was discharged on postoperative day 10.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>DISCUSSION:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Migration of a biliary stent can cause life-threatening complications such as perforation of the intestine and peritonitis. The migration of the stent from the biliary tree may be mostly asymptomatic except in cases of intestinal perforation that immediate surgery is the proper treatment option. On the other hand, even in cases of benign lesions of the bile duct, the stent should be removed immediately after dislocation in order to reduce the risk of secondary complications such as obstruction, infection or perforation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSION:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In cases of non-complicated stent migration endoscopic retrieval is the indicated treatment. In patients who suffer serious complications due to stent dislocation, emergency surgery may be the proper treatment option.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2017.01.016","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,10]],"date-time":"2017-01-10T15:16:48Z","timestamp":1484061408000},"page":"83-85","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["A rare cause for Hartmann\u2019s procedure due to biliary stent migration"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Petros","family":"Siaperas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Argyrios","family":"Ioannidis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andreas","family":"Skarpas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Argiris","family":"Angelopoulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ioannis","family":"Drikos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ioannis","family":"Karanikas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-23-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"162","DOI":"10.1067\/mge.2001.116876","article-title":"Long-term results of endoscopic management of postoperative bile duct strictures with increasing numbers of stents","volume":"54","author":"Costamagna","year":"2001","journal-title":"Gastrointest.
