Key Words Self expanding metal stent; Anti-reflux stent; Randomized controlled trial; Esophageal stent; Meta-analysis
Core Tip In this meta-analysis, we studied and compared the traditional standard self-expanding metal stent and anti-reflux stent in terms of their efficacy and safety. We included 8 randomized controlled trials in our meta-analysis from 3 different databases. We expected anti-reflux stent with valves, as its name suggests, to show improvement in reflux symptom score, however, this was not observed in our study. This review study shows that there is no difference between standard stent and anti-reflux stent in terms of improving reflux symptom and dysphagia score. This study also confirms that there is no difference in terms of complications including stent migration, bleeding, and obstruction between standard stent and anti-reflux stent.
