[Pancreatic Cancer with Hemobilia after Biliary Self-Expandable Metallic Stent Placement during Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy-A Case Report].

2020 
: A 67-year-old woman was diagnosed with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer and obstructive jaundice. A covered self-expandable metallic stent(SEMS)was placed endoscopically. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine plus nabpaclitaxel was provided. Forty-seven days after the SEMS placement, she presented with hematemesis. Computed tomography revealed migration of SEMS into the small bowel. No pseudoaneurysms were detected. Upper digestive endoscopy demonstrated hemobilia without obvious causes of bleeding in the stomach or duodenum. As hemorrhage recurrence was confirmed in the bile duct, we performed pancreaticoduodenectomy. Thus, bile duct hemorrhage can occur in patients with pancreatic cancer after SEMS placement.
