A 78-year-old woman who presented with jaundice and fever was referred from another hospital to our endoscopy unit. Her laboratory tests revealed a total bilirubin concentration of 11.7 µmol/L. Computed tomography (CT) scans revealed dilatation of the main biliary duct and the presence of a foreign body in the peripapillary area ([Fig. 1]). The appearance of the foreign body was suggestive of a denture, and the patient reported having involuntary ingested, 3 days previously, a denture that had been implanted many years ago. We performed an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), which revealed a protruding papilla with the appearance of an impacted stone. We started to perform a sphincterotomy using a precut needle-knife and completed it with a standard sphincterotome. After this, the denture was immediately expelled and allowed to pass into the duodenum ([Video 1]). In the following days, the patient’s total bilirubin level decreased and she was discharged home
