Overview

The authors present their experience with endoscopic introduction of stents into esophagus and cardia based on data collected from a group of 520 patients. Their study included both paliative management of stenoses in carcinomas of the esophagus and cardia, as well as management of other esophageal conditions, including fistules, perforations and various types of stenoses, including the use of novel absorbable stents.

Key words:
metallic esophageal stents – absorbable esophageal stents – dysphygia – esophageal carcinoma – fistules – perforations – benign stenoses
