# Successful Retrieval of an Impacted Biliary Extraction Basket Without a Salvage Device: A Novel Modified Device

## TL;DR

A modified device was successfully used to remove an impacted biliary basket during an ERCP procedure, avoiding the need for additional treatments.

## Contribution

A novel modified device was developed and successfully used for basket retrieval without a dedicated salvage device.

## Key findings

- The modified device successfully retrieved the impacted basket without complications.
- This approach avoided the need for additional procedures like ESWL or surgery.

## Abstract

During an ERCP procedure for bile duct stones, the patient experienced basket impaction during the operation. We successfully removed the impacted reticular basket without complications, utilizing a temporary salvage device modified with a lithotripter, thereby avoiding other future procedures such as ESWL or surgery.
