Comparative study of self-expanding metal stent and intraluminal radioactive stent for inoperable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
BACKGROUND We compared the effectiveness of self-expanding metal stent alone vs. radioactive stent embedded with 125I seeds implantation insertion in patients of inoperable esophageal squamous cell cancer combined with malignant esophageal stenosis. METHODS We studied two groups of patients with stenosis attribute to inoperable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Group A had placed self-expan...
متن کاملSubclavian artery-esophageal fistula after placement of a self-expanding metal stent in a patient with esophagogastric anastomosis stenosis
Background: There have been reports on stent-related vascular erosions about patients with benign or malignant stenosis of the esophagus who received endoscopic stent insertion for palliative intention for oral intake. Case presentation: A 61-year-old woman with esophageal cancer located in the middle part of esophagus was treated with esophagectomy. Two years following the surgery, malignan...
متن کاملComparative Study of Esophageal Stent and Feeding Gastrostomy/Jejunostomy for Tracheoesophageal Fistula Caused by Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
BACKGROUND A malignant tracheoesophageal/bronchoesophageal fistula (TEF) is a life-threatening complication of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. A feeding gastrostomy/jejunostomy had been the most common treatment method for patients with TEF before the era of stenting. The aim of this retrospective study is to compare the prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients with TEF trea...
متن کاملEsophageal fully covered self-expanding metal stent for combined treatment of an aortoesophageal fistula.
We report on a 63-year-old man with a history of coronary artery bypass in 1995 who presented with massive hematemesis and hemodynamic instability. A computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a thoracic aortic pseudoaneurysm causing a mass effect on the esophagus (●" Fig.1) and rupture of the aorta immediately after the origin of the left subclavian artery, with the suspicion of an aortoesophageal...
متن کاملSelf‐expanding stent effects on radiation dosimetry in esophageal cancer
It is the purpose of this study to evaluate how self-expanding stents (SESs) affect esophageal cancer radiation planning target volumes (PTVs) and dose delivered to surrounding organs at risk (OARs). Ten patients were evaluated, for whom a SES was placed before radiation. A computed tomography (CT) scan obtained before stent placement was fused to the post-stent CT simulation scan. Three method...
