Event Description

Boston scientific corporation became aware of the following event through the article "outcome of self-expandable metal stents placement for obstructive colorectal cancer: 7 years' experience from a swedish tertiary center", by papachrysos, n., et al.The study aims to review the outcomes of self-expanding metal stent (sems) treatment in a tertiary center and to find predictors for the clinical outcome.The data were analyzed from sems insertion at (b)(6), between 2014 and 2020.Patients were identified through an administrative database that continuously registered all the sems insertions.The inclusion criteria were computed tomography ct verified acute colonic obstruction or progressive obstructive symptoms in patients already diagnosed with colorectal cancer.The obstruction was located from the right colon to the rectum.The purpose of stenting was either palliation or bridging to surgery.According to the literature, a total of 265 self-expanding metal stents (sems) insertions (mean age 72, female 49.4%) were identified.Most sems were used for palliation (90.2%).The malign obstruction was most often located in the left colon (71.7%).All procedure were performed using wallflex colonic and wallflex soft stents uncovered.Patients were placed under conscious sedation.Stent deployment was performed over the guidewire by the through-the-scope tts technique.Correct positioning was assured by fluoroscopy.According to the article, technical success was achieved in 259 (97.7%) cases and clinical success in 244 (92.1%) cases.Eleven patients (4.2%) had a perforation during the first 48 postoperative hours and were immediately evaluated by a colorectal surgeon.In 16 patients a second self-expanding metal stent (sems) and in 5 patients a third self-expanding metal stent (sems) were placed after tumor invasion and restenosis of the stent.The second sems were placed 2-36 months after the first one.
