This file is dealing with the oa-10 malfunctioning, an additional file has been opened to capture clso-10-7 half way deploying the clso-10-7, the oa-10 got stuck, cannot push further, so we had to remove the oa-10 & guidewire.Because half of the stent is in the common bile duct, the other half outside papilla, we had to use a biopsy forcep to push it into the duct.Few hours later, doctor had to remove the stent because xray shows that it was in the wrong track.
