Abstract

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided drainage of pancreatic collections has replaced surgery as the first line of treatment due its accuracy and safety profile. A higher success rate and fewer adverse events has been observed using fully covered metal stent for the drainage. However, complications of EUS-guided drainage can appear. We present a case of late migration of the stent.
