We often encounter complications from biliary stents used as a treatment for obstructive jaundice and acute cholangitis. Early complications after stent placement include pancreatitis, bleeding, and duodenal perforation [1]. Stent deviation is also a complication. This is particularly prominent for plastic stents, where stent deviation is observed in 6-18.7 % of cases [2]. Stent deviation is more common among patients who have undergone endoscopic sphincterotomy (Figure 1). Most deviated biliary plastic stents are excreted in stool or collected endoscopically, but, very rarely, complications causing gastrointestinal perforation have been reported. We have described deviated biliary plastic stents causing sigmoid colon diverticulum perforation and even uterine appendage penetration (Figure 2). Diagnosis can be made from clinical symptoms and abdominal computed tomography. Treatment is basically surgery. Biliary stent-related complications are inevitable, and sometimes become serious. On suspicion of such complications, the most important issue is to accurately and rapidly diagnose complications and conduct appropriate management.

Abstract Background and study aims Duodenal perforation by migration of plastic stents placed to treat biliary lesions is rare but can be life-threatening. Surgical management is preferred, but it may increase risks of mortality and morbidity, especially in patients with underlying comorbidities and those of advanced age. We describe five cases of duodenal perforation that were successfully managed endoscopically. Four patients were elderly, and one had end-stage renal disease. We used cylindrically adapted cap-fitted endoscopy to successfully retrieve migrated plastic stents and to close the perforated walls with hemoclips. No post-procedural complication was noted. In conclusion, endoscopic management is appropriate as a first-line approach in patients with duodenal perforations caused by plastic stent migration.

Background: Wound dehiscence/burst abdomen is a very serious post-operative complication associated with high morbidity and mortality. The need for this study is to highlight the risk factors for wound dehiscence and remedial measures to prevent or reduce the incidence of wound dehiscence. This will certainly reduce mortality and morbidity in the form of prolonged hospital stay, increased economic burden on health care resources.Methods: This is a prospective and observational study involving all those who have developed abdomen wound dehiscence after initial surgery, an elaborative study of these cases with regard to date of admission, clinical history regarding the mode of presentation, significant risk factors, investigations, time of surgery and type of surgery postoperatively, study of diagnosis and day of diagnosis of wound dehiscence is done till the patient is discharged from the hospital. The collected data is analysed and statistics were made according to need.Results: The incidence of abdominal wound dehiscence is more common in male patients in 4th to 5th decade. Patients with peritonitis due to duodenal perforation, complicated appendicitis, pyoperitoneum and intestinal obstruction and carried higher risk of abdominal wound dehiscence. Abdominal wound dehiscence was more common in patients operated in emergency. Patients with intra-abdominal infection, anaemia, hypoalbuminemia, jaundice had higher incidence of wound dehiscence.Conclusions: Wound dehiscence can be prevented by improving nutritional status of patient, proper surgical technique, controlling infections and correcting co-morbid conditions.

Background: Peptic ulcer disease is highly prevalent in general population managed mainly by medical treatment with H2 blockers, proton pump inhibitors and antibiotics with eradication of Helicobacter pylori, the complications have reduced, but perforation is still frequently occurring and is always a surgical emergency.Methods: It was a hospital based retrospective observational study from January 2015 to June 2017 and prospective observational study from July 2017 to June 2019. Study patients were diagnosed, managed and operated for perforated peptic ulcer at Sheri-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Soura, Kashmir, India. Data of 44 patients was collected using a standard proforma and their risk factors, operative procedure, post-operative progress and outcome was analysed.Results: In our study of 44 cases, patients between ages of 21-30 years (31.8) were commonly affected and there was male predominance (95.5%). Smoking, use of NSAIDS and improper treatment for peptic ulcer were major risk factors. 61.4% patients presented within 24 hours of presentation. Cellan Jones repair was performed in 60.4% patients. Complications were due to co-morbid illness, age and delayed presentation for treatment.Conclusions: Perforated peptic ulcer (PPU) is a frequent surgical emergency in our state, predominantly affecting young aged male, may be because of dietary habits (very spicy food), smoking, NSAIDS and other risk factors. Surgical intervention is always warranted. Simple closure with omental patch is standard procedure, followed by treatment for H. pylori eradication and was effective and majority of patients survived despite delayed preoperative admission.
