Olympus med systems corp (omsc) was informed that during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ercp), the doctor inserted the device into the bile duct and captured the stone after the staff nurse set up the device and carried out the relevant tests to make sure it was connected properly.However, he couldn't crush it.They removed the product but the basket had dislodged from the sheath and was stuck inside the pt.The doctor did not want to remove the scope so could not use the emergency handle.They went back down with the original sheath and the basket somehow re-attached to the sheath.The stone had only been broken slightly and due to the distress of the pt they had to place a stent and abandoned the procedure.Pt was distressed during procedure but is fine.
