Core Tip
Core Tip: Aorto-duodenal fistula is a rare cause of gastrointestinal bleeding and most commonly managed with open surgery. This case reports the first ever use of minimally invasive treatment of aortoduodenal fistula with endovascular repair of aorta and endoscopic stenting of duodenum. The duodenal stent was complicated with migration, which can be prevented with clipping of the duodenal stent to the mucosa.
