ABSTRACT
La migración de un clip al colédoco tras una colecistectomía es un hecho infrecuente, habitualmente tardío, que puede ocasionar complicaciones diversas como la formación de litiasis en la vía biliar, o la aparición de obstrucción y estenosis. Presentamos un caso de migración de un clip tras una colecistectomía laparoscópica ocurrido un año tras la intervención, que se presentó clínicamente con un cuadro de colangitis, resuelta mediante la colocación de una endoprótesis biliar mediante de una colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica (AU)
The migration of a clip to the common bile duct after cholecystectomy is an uncommon, usually late, complication that can lead to diverse complications like stone formation, stenosis, and obstruction in the bile duct. We present the case of a patient who presented with signs and symptoms of cholangitis due to clip migration one year after laparoscopic cholecystectomy; endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and biliary tract stent placement resolved the problem (AU)
