Core Tip |
The technical and clinical success rates for self-expandable metal stents (SEMSs) placement were 94% (95%CI: 92-96) and 91% (95%CI: 88-93), respectively. Overall complication rate for SEMS was 23% (95%CI: 18-29). Stent migration 8% (95%CI: 6-10) and stent obstruction 8% (95%CI: 6-11) were the most common complications, followed by perforation 5% (95%CI: 4%-7%). Surgical or endoscopic re-interventions were needed in 14% (95%CI: 10-18) of patients. Endoscopic repeat stent placement was required in 8% (95%CI: 6-10), while surgical intervention was needed in 6% (95%CI: 4-8). SEMS are effective when used as palliation or bridge to surgery for malignant colorectal obstruction with high technical and clinical success. About 14% of patients require repeat endoscopic or surgical intervention for stent failure or to manage stent related complications. |
