Reports of duodenal loss of substance after laparoscopic cholecystectomy are rare. We report successful management of a large duodenal defect that occurred after cholecystectomy by endoscopic insertion of a duodenal stent and double pigtail catheters.

Keywords: Complication; Double pigtail stent; Duodenal fistula; Endoscopic management; Laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
