Laparoscopy for pre-operative staging and assessment of operability in gastric carcinoma.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) palliate malignant dysphagia but may embed in tissue, produce granulation tissue, and prevent removal. OBJECTIVE:Our purpose was to evaluate in a porcine model the tissue response induced by a new esophageal SEMS completely coated internally rather than externally. DESIG...
