Pr (b)(4): stent obstruction and safety wire breakage resulting in pain and nausea.On (b)(6) 2022, a stent was placed in the patient's esophagus due to dysphagia on (b)(6) a month later, it turned out that the mucosa of the esophagus was overgrown with a stent from both ends.And the safety wire is broken.It became impossible to remove a stent.Pet-ct showed that the lumen of the stent was obstructed, so on (b)(6) the stent was lifted a little higher by gastroscopy.The patient had persistent severe pain and nausea as a result of stent placement.Pr (b)(4): user error - after stent placement alternative methods of treatment such as chemotherapy should not be administered.On (b)(6) 2022, the patient began a weekly course of chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin.In about 10 days after the start of chemotherapy, the pressure/pain and nausea went away, but for the last 10 days the patient started to feel pain and difficulty at swallowing, so a chest ct was done, which showed that the oncological nodules had shrunk and pressure on the esophagus has been lifted, although it turned out that the mucosa of the esophagus was overgrown with a stent from both ends.Pr (b)(4): user error - this stent is not intended to be removed and is intended to remain in the body permanently.A plan was developed to remove the stent by gastroscopy, but it turned out that the mucosa of the esophagus was overgrown with a stent from both ends.The threads at the ends of the stent were torn.It became impossible to remove the stent (they tried to remove the stent twice but neither tries were successful).As there is no solution to this issue, the oncologist temporarily suspended chemotherapy, because we do not know what type of intervention will be necessary, and due to the recent interventions, the patient had fever, irritation of respiratory tract, nausea, difficulty swallowing and pain in the stent/esophagus area.The patient is in a hard physical and emotional condition.Due to the complication with stent vitally important for her chemotherapy was stopped.Stent removal is the most important on this stage.The patient is in a hard physical and emotional condition.Due to the complication with stent vitally important for her chemotherapy was stopped.Stent removal is the most important on this stage.It is impossible to remove the stent, that esophageal mucosa is stuck in uncovered sites of the stent.The threads at the ends of the stent are torn.The patient is in a hard physical and emotional condition.Due to the complication with stent vitally important for him chemotherapy was stopped.Please share your experience how this problem can be solved, what ways you recommend to remove the stent.On (b)(6) 2022, a stent was placed in the patient's esophagus due to dysphagia.On (b)(6), pet-ct showed that the lumen of the stent was obstructed, so on (b)(6) the stent was lifted a little higher by gastroscopy.The patient had persistent severe pain and nausea as a result of stent placement.On (b)(6) 2022, the patient began a weekly course of chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin.In about 10 days after the start of chemotherapy, the pressure/pain and nausea went away, but for the last 10 days the patient started to feel pain and difficulty at swallowing, so a chest ct was done, which showed that the oncological nodules had shrunk and pressure on the esophagus has been lifted, although it turned out that the mucosa of the esophagus was overgrown with a stent from both ends.A plan was developed to remove the stent by gastroscopy, but it turned out that the mucosa of the esophagus was overgrown with a stent from both ends.The threads at the ends of the stent were torn.It became impossible to remove the stent (they tried to remove the stent twice but neither tries were successful).As there is no solution to this issue, the oncologist temporarily suspended chemotherapy, because we do not know what type of intervention will be necessary, and due to the recent interventions, the patient had fever, irritation of respiratory tract, nausea, difficulty swallowing and pain in the stent/esophagus area.The patient is in a hard physical and emotional condition.Due to the complication with stent vitally important for her chemotherapy was stopped.Stent removal is the most important on this stage.
