BACKGROUND: Percutaneous cholecystostomy is used for a variety of clinical problems. METHODS: Percutaneous cholecystostomy was utilized in a novel setting to resolve a problematic endoscopic situation. OBSERVATIONS: Percutaneous cholecystostomy permitted successful removal of a broken and trapped endoscopic biliary catheter, in addition to helping treat cholecystitis. CONCLUSION: Another valuable use of percutaneous cholecystostomy is demonstrated, as well as emphasizing the importance of the interplay between endoscopists and interventional radiologists. |
