Abstract
Duodenal perforation is a rare but potentially life-threating complication of bilio-pancreatic endoscopic-ultrasound (EUS) examination. Here we report a case of 90 yeas-old patient underwent to EUS with curvilinear ecoendoscope and complicated by duodenal wall perforation. As reported in our case, Over-the-scope clipping system represents a quick, safe and effective approach in order close the leak and prevent further complication.
