[Resection of tumor stenoses and stent implantations in advanced neoplasms of the esophagus, stomach and duodenum].
Up to now many people demand treatment only with symptoms of a progressed cancer disease. As curative therapy is often not possible any more, endoscopy offers valuable palliative treatment options. Tumor destructive methods are mainly used for soft exophytic neoplastic tissue, whereas stent implantation is the therapy of choice in all other cases, especially if severe obstruction is present. The advantage of this method is the immediate and long lasting effect. Because of the different stent types and indications there is no optimal universal stent, so that we have to choose the individual best endoprosthesis.
