Prevention and treatment of complications after endoscopic prostheses placement in tumors of the upper gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract:

:Endoscopic intubation is a popular palliative method to resolve immediately malignant dysphagia. However, the complication rate is still high. Between 1978 and 1993, at the Division of Diagnostic and Surgical Endoscopy of Istituto Nazionale Tumori in Milan, 305 patients suffering from malignant dysphagia, were endoscopically treated by insertion of an endoprosthesis. We report the analysis of data regarding our complication rate, compared with the literature, and our experience in preventing managing complications related to this endoscopic procedure.
