Core Tip Self-expanding esophageal metal stents (SEMS) are preferable to self-expanding esophageal plastic stents (SEPS) for treatment of malignant or benign esophageal conditions, due to decreased tech-nical difficulties. Comparative studies between stent types evaluating differences between SEMS and SEPS for these conditions with regard to safety, efficacy, clinical outcomes, placement ease and cost are lacking. Retrospective analysis indicated placement outcome, complication rate, most frequent complication and in-hospital mortality after placement was equivalent between stent types. SEPS was less costly than SEMS. SEPS and SEMS have similar outcomes when used for malignant/benign esophageal conditions but SEPS results in decreased costs without impacting care.
