Obstructing cancer of the gastric antrum: palliative treatment with covered metallic stents

H Y Song et al. Radiology. 1993 May.

Abstract

A new technique, which requires a simple surgical gastrostomy without general anesthesia, is described for placement of covered expandable metallic stents. This technique was performed successfully in a patient with malignant obstruction of the gastric antrum, obviating palliative surgical resection.
