Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical value of self-designed big cup membranate stent on restenosis after stenting for carcinoma of esophago-cardia. Methods 12 cases of restenosis after stenting for carcinoma of esophago-cardia were involved in the study. Self-designed big cup membranate stent made by Nanjing Weichuang Company(the length of the cup was 3.5 cm)was placed into the constricted stent under guidance of fluoroscopy. Clinical effect, restenosis, and complications were observed during followed up. Results All the 12 cases of big cup membranat stent placement went along smoothly without indigitation of the cup of the stent. Follow-up of 1.5-8 months showed that 2 cases developed severe restenosis on the big cup of the stent, resulting in third grade difficult deglutition. Among them, one occurred 1 month after stenting, caused by hyperplasia of large amount of granulation tissue; another occurred 6 months after stenting, caused by growth of tumor tissue. 3 cases developed mild to moderate restenosis, 2.3-7 months(mean: 4.6 months)after stenting, with result of first grade difficult deglutition. The remaining 7 cases(mean5.6 months follow-up) did not have difficulty during deglutition. Conclusions Application of big cup membranate stent on restenosis after stenting for carcinoma of esophago-cardia can effectively prevent the stent from moving downwards and thus lower down the rate of restenosis, and postpone the occurrence of restenosis.
