Palliative pulsion intubation in oesophageal carcinoma
Ann R Coll Surg Engl.
1979 May.
Abstract
Peroral pulsion intubation for the palliation of dysphagia due to oesophageal carcinoma was performed on 652 patients. The mortality was 16%, failure rate 3%, and hospital stay 3 days. Advanced disease and the presence of oesophagorespiratory fistula is not a contraindication to intubation.
