Hi I wonder if any one can shine some light on this.patient with inoprable pancreas cancer. Plastic stent in bile duct changed 6 times. One of which was left in stomach as could not retract.metal stent in place now. 12 month later the patient has vomited violently and this lost plastic stent came up when vomiting!!!!!! No one can work out why this has happened, and why it was not retracted or moved larproscopy. All this happened under different hospital and the patient has been presented to us now for 2nd opinion. And to see if the lost stent has caused any dammage in the 12month inside. Stent is 4 and half inches long which is 11cm. 30fr. Any one hear any thing like this before
