Clinical utility of self-expandable metal stents in the treatment of anastomotic obstruction secondary to recurrent gastric cancer
Fluoroscopically-guided SEMS placement represents a technically safe and clinically effective intervention for managing anastomotic obstructions in recurrent gastric cancer. SEMS placement offers rapid symptom relief, shorter hospital stays, and improved quality of life compared to surgical alternatives in this patient population. Thus, based on its technical feasibility and clinical outcomes, this method warrants primary consideration in palliative treatment algorithms.
