title: Migration of clips after laparoscopic cholecystectomy; a case report and literature review.
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.
