Successful Colonic Stenting Across the Ileocecal Valve With Severe Malignant Stenosis Using Ultra-thin Scope and Single-balloon Overtube. [PDF]

DEN Open
ABSTRACT Self‐expanding metallic stents (SEMSs) are an established palliative option for malignant colonic obstruction, including in cases with proximal lesions. However, SEMS placement across the ileocecal valve (ICV) can be technically challenging because of the anatomical curvature and luminal stenosis. Herein, we report a successful case of colonic
