Core Tip	Gastrointestinal obstruction is a complication of advanced cancer disease. It heavily impacts on patientsi’ general condition. Endoscopic implantation of self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) is a safe and established procedure for palliative treatment of tumor obstruction. Covered SEMS are considered favorable concerning reobstruction by inhibiting tumor ingrowth. In contrast, uncovered SEMS might harbor a lower risk of migration and dislocation. In the present study covered SEMS were retrospectively compared with uncovered SEMS in patients with small bowel or duodenal obstruction. Significantly higher migration rates were observed in the covered SEMS group without observing significant increase of the rate of patients with tumor ingrowth indicating that uncovered SEMS should be favored for palliative treatment of tumor obstruction of the duodenum or the small bowel.
