[A rare cause of ileus and its laparoscopic treatment].
Stenting is a modern method making possible to open malignant oesophageal stenosis. The technique is associated with various complications. The authors describe the management of a rare stent migration to the aboral part of the GI tract, causing an acute abdomen. Based on their own experience with dislocated stents they recommend, contrary to the literature, an active approach when migration to the aboral of the GI tract occurs. Early stent extraction even when the course is uneventful is advantageous.
