Endoscopic biliary stent insertion is a well-established procedure.It is especially successful in treating postoperative biliary leaks,and may prevent surgical intervention.A routine change of endoprostheses after 3 mo is a common practice but this can be prolonged to 6 mo.We reported a colonic perforation due to biliary stent dislocation and migration to the rectosigmoid colon,and reviewed the literature.
