Core Tip	The optimal management of obstructive colon cancer remains intricate and controversial, particularly now that the use of colonoscopic stents is expanding. Several studies have demonstrated the better short-term outcome achieved by delayed surgery after self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) placement than emergency surgery. However, concerns that SEMS placement diminishes oncologic outcomes have been increasing. This article summarizes the impact of SEMS placement in managing obstructive colon cancer and suggests future research to resolve current problems.
