We herein report a 78-year-old man who underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) to examine main pancreatic duct (MPD) stenosis. During ERCP, MPD perforation occurred due to the cytology brush maneuver. Endoscopic pancreatic stenting to bridge the perforated site failed because the MPD was bent and formed a loop. Thus, we placed the stent at the proximal perforated side. The patient developed retroperitoneal perforation and pancreatic fistula with infection, showing a worsening condition. Pancreatic duct drainage was not effective, so we performed endoscopic ultrasonography-guided pancreatic duct drainage. Subsequently, he gradually improved and was discharged 3 months after initial ERCP.

Introduction: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment but can give rise to immune-related adverse events such as ICI-related diabetes mellitus (DM).

Case Presentation: We herein present the case of a 59-year-old Japanese man with malignant melanoma who developed ICI-related DM after 18 months of nivolumab treatment. He experienced marked hyperglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis without a personal or family history of diabetes.

Background: Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) is a severe and deadly adverse event following ERCP. The ideal method for predicting PEP risk before ERCP has yet to be identified. We aimed to establish a simple PEP risk score model (SuPER model: Support for PEP Reduction) that can be applied before ERCP.

Introduction: Reports of pseudoaneurysms associated with biliary self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement have been increasing. Recently, cases of hepatic pseudoaneurysm rupture caused by double pigtail plastic stents (DPS) have also been reported. The symptoms of pseudoaneurysms are often non-specific, and many cases are diagnosed only after rupture.

Objectives: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic, immune-mediated disorders of the gastrointestinal system. Pancreas can be affected in IBD patients with a wide array of clinical conditions including acu-te pancreatitis, abnormalities of pancreatic duct and pancreatic insufficiency. Pancreatic steatosis (PS) is an important but often overlooked pathology of pancreas.
