We appreciate the advice and comment of Drs. García Cano and Viñuelas about the best plastic stent for the prevention of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (post-ERCP) pancreatitis. We are aware of the benefit of placing a plastic stent in cases where the pancreatic duct is incorrectly and accidentally canalized in an attempt to access the biliary tree, as shown in their original paper.
