Abstract

Common bile duct stones are usually managed by Gastroenterologists using Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP) and services of Surgeons are required if the stone is large or impacted. But at times, emergency bile duct explorations become mandatory in some unusual complications of ERCP. We describe one such situation of impacted dormia basket during ERCP which required rescue surgery.
