Core Tip |
This is a retrospective study to evaluate the efficacy of self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) for the palliation of gastric outlet obstruction in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). Between January 2008 and April 2014 we treated 62 patients with duodenal stents for palliation of malignant gastroduodenal obstruction. In most cases, obstruction was caused by pancreatic (47%) or gastric cancer (23%). Technical success was achieved in 96.8% and clinical success in 79% of all patients. Carcinomatosis was associated with a significantly lower clinical success rate (66.7% vs 88.6%, p = 0.036). Given the limited therapeutic options and a clinical success rate of at least 66.7% we believe that SEMS are a reasonable treatment option in patients with PC.
