Core Tip	Endoscopic biliary stenting with a tube stent is an accepted therapy for biliary obstruction due to malignant or benign disease. However, stent migration occurs in 5%-10% of patients undergoing biliary stenting. Therefore, it is important to know the factors affecting biliary tube stent migration. We retrospectively examined endoscopic stent placement in 396 patients with bile duct stenosis, and analyzed the frequency of stent migration and the risk factors (patient factors disease, endoscopic sphincterotomy, location of stenosis, diameter of bile duct) and stent factors (duration of placement, type, diameter, length).
