| Core Tip |
A rare but severe complication of chemo-radiation of the esophagus, in case of esophageal cancer, is a complete esophageal obstruction. Blind anterograde wire access and dilatation leads to a higher risk of perforation, due to lack of visualization and a disrupted anatomy. For this reason the rendezvous technique was introduced, which involves an anterograde approach in combination with a retrograde approach in order to open and dilatate the esophagus. |
