Recanalization using a novel drill-shaped dilator for a severe pancreatic duct stricture and impacted pancreatic duct stone
Endoscopy(2023)
摘要
Pancreatic duct stones can cause severe acute pancreatitis and are sometimes fatal. Endoscopic pancreatic duct drainage has been established as a first-line treatment [1] [2]; however, hard stones can make passing through strictures challenging. A Soehendra stent retriever with a screw tip (SSR-7; Cook Medical, Tokyo, Japan) may be useful in this situation [3], but a serious complication can occur should the tip of the stent retriever detach and migrate into the pancreatic duct [4]. A novel dilator with a unique shape was recently developed (Tornus ES for 0.025-inch guidewire; 7 Fr, stainless steel; Asahi Intecc, Aichi, Japan) [5] ([Fig. 1]). This drill-shaped dilator can be rotated to break through strictures. Here, we describe recanalization using this novel drill-shaped dilator for a patient with severe pancreatic duct stricture and an impacted pancreatic duct stone ([Video 1]).
