Core Tip	Colorectal stents can be used for two indications in colorectal malignancies; palliative dilatation of advanced disease, and preoperative decompression as a bridge to surgery. In both indications, colonic stents prevent colostomy with stoma. Decompression of the bowel gives time for surgeons to stabilize the patient, stage the disease with imaging techniques, and take a biopsy. Thus, it allows one-stage surgery with primary anastomosis. Palliative colorectal stenting was shown to be as effective and acceptable as palliative surgery. Colonic stents showed long-term efficacy comparable to that of surgery
