Here, we report a case of a 74-year-old woman treated for acute cholecystitis. She initially underwent percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage
however, cholecystitis recurred when the drain was clamped. Therefore, endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder drainage (ETGBD) was performed. Endoscopic sphincterotomy was performed, and a transpapillary gallbladder stent was placed. Additionally, a pancreatic spontaneous dislodgment stent (PSDS) was inserted to prevent post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis. Cholecystitis resolved, and the patient was discharged seven days later. Twenty-five days after ETGBD, she experienced abdominal pain, and computed tomography revealed ascending colon perforation by the migrated PSDS. She underwent laparoscopic surgery, in which the perforation was sutured, and an ileostomy was performed. The postoperative course was uneventful, and colonoscopy performed two months after surgery revealed multiple diverticula in the ascending colon. PSDS-induced gastrointestinal perforations are extremely rare. Previous case reports have suggested that perforation is caused by long-term stent retention in the gastrointestinal tract due to obstructions, such as peritonitis carcinomatosa or postoperative adhesions. We believe that in this case, the PSDS was retained because of multiple colonic diverticula. PSDS should be used with caution in patients with multiple colonic diverticula, peritonitis carcinomatosa, and postoperative adhesions.
