Abstract :
Postcholecystectomy clip migration is rare and can lead to complications
such as clip-related biliary stones. Most of such incidents have been reported
as case reports. This study reviews a case of postcholecystectomy clip migration.
It can occur at any time but typically occur at a median of 2 years after
cholecystectomy. Clinical presentations are similar to those with primary or
secondary choledocholithiasis. Most cases can be managed successfully with
ERCP.
