The authors assessed the efficacy of an antireflux valve stent in the palliation of malignant esophagogastric junction (EGJ) obstruction after in vitro testing of the stent. Seventeen patients with inoperable malignant EGJ obstruction were treated. Antireflux valves, made of three polyurethane leaflets, were attached to the distal part of the stent to prevent reflux. When the flow rate of normal saline was 100 mL/sec in the forward direction, the valve fully opened at a pressure of 10 mm Hg. When the flow rate of normal saline was 0.35 mL/sec in the backward direction, the valve nearly completely closed at a pressure of 10 mm Hg. Stent placement was successful in all patients without complications. The median dysphagia score decreased significantly, from 3.0 (dysphagia to liquids) to 1.0 (dysphagia to normal solid food) (P < .0005). No patients experienced reflux symptoms. There was one case of stent migration. A valve stent that can prevent major reflux is an effective device for the palliation of malignant EGJ obstruction. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to evaluate technical and clinical results of self-expanding esophageal stent implanted in patients with malignant esophageal strictures and clinically significant dysphagia. From June 1992 to September 1994, 27 patients with inoperable tumors of the esophagus or gastric cardiac were treated by placement of 37 self-expanding nitinol stents. Water-soluble contrast and endoscopy studies were performed after the procedure and during the follow-up period. Successful stenting of the stricture was achieved in 27 patients. The mean dysphagia grade dropped from 2.3 to 1 (SD ± 0.54) immediately after the procedure. After the insertion of the stent, 16 patients died in a period of time ranging from 0 to 13 months (mean 5.6 months), whereas at the end of the study 11 patients were alive 4–15 months after the procedure (mean 8.3 months). No major complications were observed. The results of this study are encouraging because esophageal stent placement was technically easy and clinically effective.

Carotid blowout is a devastating complication in patients with head and neck malignancy. A covered stent offers an alternative to treatment of a carotid blowout patient thought to be at high risk for surgery or carotid occlusion. Stent placement in the common carotid artery or carotid bulb is a technical challenge because of large luminal diameter and luminal calibre discrepancy between internal carotid artery and common carotid artery. We present four patients with common carotid rupture and massive bleeding who were treated with self-expanding covered stents, among them, two cases were treated with newly designed self-expanding polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-covered nitinol stents. 相似文献

A case history is described, of a patient with a squamous cell carcinoma of the oesophagus. As the tumour was too advanced for further treatment, a self-expanding stent was inserted into the oesophagus under fluoroscopic control. The aim of the treatment was to restore the diameter of the oesophagus and to improve palliation. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: A new neurovascular microstent, the Cordis Enterprise stent, composed of nitinol, with a closed cell design, was specifically developed for the treatment of wide-necked intracranial cerebral aneurysms. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and initial clinical results of using this device in patients. METHODS: In clinical evaluation, five patients ranging in age from 54 to 71 years were electively treated. The smallest aneurysm measured 3.3 x 2.9 mm, and the largest aneurysm measured 10.6 x 8.5 mm (neck and height measurements). RESULTS: All five cases (100%) were technically successful without complications. In each case, the stent was accurately placed in the desired location, immediately followed by coil embolization to the desired degree of occlusion with a satisfactory result. The poststent and coil-occlusion angiogram demonstrated excellent blood flow across the stent, with satisfactory positioning of the coils within the aneurysm in all cases (100%). No patient suffered any clinical or neurologic complications, and all were discharged 1-3 days postprocedure, in stable condition with no new neurologic deficits. CONCLUSION: In early clinical studies, the Cordis Enterprise stent performed well. The stent was able to be well visualized, deployed easily, could be repositioned if needed, and was accurately placed without technical difficulties. The closed cell design allowed all coils to be placed within the aneurysm and remain outside the flow of the parent artery. No periprocedural complications were encountered. 相似文献

Our objective was to assess the technical feasibility and the clinical results of internal carotid artery (ICA) stenting using a nitinol self-expanding stent (SMART stent). In 13 patients 13 high-grade stenoses of the internal carotid artery were treated via an implantation of a SMART stent. In all cases a predilation of the stenosis and a postdilation within the stent were performed. Follow-up examinations were carried out in all patients after a period of 6 months. In each case the implantation of the stent was performed without technical complications. In 12 of 13 cases the stent was placed in the patients' internal carotid artery, in 1 case from the internal to the common carotid artery (CCA). The average degree of stenosis of 78% (70-95%) was reduced to an average of 2.8% (0-21%). The 6-month follow-up angiography showed an average degree of restenosis of 11.8% (0-29%) in 8 of 13 patients. Duplex sonography in the remaining 5 patients demonstrated patent stents. One patient showed brief neurological symptoms during the intervention. No further complications occurred during follow-up time. Treatment of internal carotid artery stenosis with the SMART stent seems technically feasible, safe, and promises long-term patency. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and short-term patency rates of a self-expandable nitinol stent (JostentSelfX; Abbott Laboratories, Chicago, IL) for treatment of iliac artery stenoses. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a prospective study, 34 chronic iliac artery stenoses were primarily treated in 27 patients (mean age, 61.7 years +/- 9.4) by placement of a JostentSelfX. Handling and visibility of the stent was scored on a 4-point scale. Before stent placement, within 3 days after stent placement and at 6 months follow-up, the clinical history, clinical stage according to the Rutherford classification, and the ankle-brachial index (ABI) were assessed. Intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography including measurement of the mean pressure gradient was performed at the time of stent placement and at 6 months follow-up or in case of recurrence of symptoms. The Wilcoxon signed rank test and Kaplan-Meier method were applied for statistical analysis. RESULTS: The immediate technical success rate was 94%. The clinical success rate immediately after the procedure was 96% and 85% at 6 months follow-up. Stent placement significantly decreased the severity of stenoses as well as the mean pressure gradients and significantly increased the ABI. Handling of the stent was judged good. No misplacement occurred. Foreshortening during deployment was negligible and no stent migration was seen. However, visibility of the stent during fluoroscopy was ranked as moderate to bad. Follow-up at 6 months revealed the cumulative angiographic primary patency rate (<50% restenosis and <10 mm Hg mean pressure gradient) to be 0.96. CONCLUSION: The evaluated self-expandable nitinol stent is an effective tool in treating iliac artery stenoses. Apart from poor visibility, handling was good. The angiographic patency rate is comparable with data reported in other stent trials. 相似文献

Bronchial stenosis due to endobronchial tuberculosis: successful treatment with self-expanding metallic stent. 总被引:30,自引:0,他引:30
J K Han J G Im J H Park M C Han Y W Kim Y S Shim 《AJR. American journal of roentgenology》1992,159(5):971-972
Endobronchial tuberculosis is present in 10-40% of patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis, and more than 90% of the patients with endobronchial tuberculosis have some degree of bronchial stenosis. The primary treatment for tuberculous bronchial stenosis is antituberculous chemotherapy combined with steroids, but some patients do not respond well, and more aggressive treatment is needed to restore the patency of the involved bronchus. Balloon dilatation of tuberculous bronchial stenosis has been reported to be successful. However, in our experience, balloon dilatation of the stenotic segment has not significantly improved patients' clinical symptoms except in those with very short segmental stenosis. We describe a case of tuberculous bronchial stenosis that was successfully treated with Gianturco self-expanding metallic stents. 相似文献

Inferior vena cava (IVC) obstruction is a well-described clinical entity. Most IVC obstructions from malignant neoplasms are a direct result of tumor compression [Oviedo J, Cerda S. Vascular invasion by hepatocellular carcinoma. Arch Pathol Lab Med 2001;125: 454–5; Furui S, Sawada S, et al. Gianturco stent placement in malignant caval obstruction: analysis of factors for predicting the outcome. Radiology 1995;195:147–52; Fletcher WS, Lakin PC, et al. Results of treatment of inferior vena cava syndrome with expandable metallic stents. Arch Surg 1998;133:935–8]. The symptoms of IVC obstruction include progressive ascites, scrotal edema and lower body edema. These constellations of symptoms are described as IVC syndrome and are devastating to a patient with end-stage cancer. We describe a palliative therapy utilizing Luminexx nitinol self-expanding stents to treat intracaval hepatoma thrombus obstructing the IVC. The procedure is rapidly performed, technically reliable, and has essentially no morbidity or mortality. This procedure can be performed in the interventional radiology suite with excellent results resolving the IVC syndrome soon after placement of the stents. We believe endovascular stenting as an excellent palliative therapy for patients with IVC syndrome and should be the treatment of choice for caval obstructions due to intraluminal tumor thrombus. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate a self-expanding rhenium 188 (188Re) radiochemically labeled radioactive stent in sheep. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A self-expanding nitinol stent (30 mm in length, 8 mm in diameter) coated with a functionalized polymer layer was radiolabeled with 188Re. Fifty prostheses, 25 of which were radioactive (mean radioactivity, 20 MBq +/- 3.8 [SD]) and 25 of which were nonradioactive, were implanted into the external iliac arteries of 25 sheep. Stent patency was assessed with angiography. Neointimal formation was assessed with intravascular ultrasonography and histologic examination 1 month (in all sheep) and 3 months (in 12 sheep) after implantation. The results were analyzed by using repeated-measures analysis of variance with two repeated factors and paired t tests for comparison at each measuring point. RESULTS: All stents were placed successfully. Data in one animal had to be excluded from the study. After 3 months, a mean neointimal area reduction of 70 mm2 +/- 55 (SD) was observed inside the radioactive stents, and a mean lumen reduction of 126 mm2 +/- 39 was observed inside the nonradioactive control stents (P =.022). An edge effect was observed in the radioactive stents in that they showed an amount of neointimal formation at the edges that was similar to that seen in control stents. This neointimal formation accounted for the maximum lumen loss in the vascular segment with the stent. CONCLUSION: As compared with a nonradioactive stent, a beta particle-emitting stent, through endovascular irradiation, significantly inhibits neointimal formation inside the stent but not at the stent edges. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-covered retrievable expandable nitinol stents in tracheobronchial strictures. MATERIALS AND METHODS: With fluoroscopic guidance, PTFE-covered retrievable expandable nitinol stents were placed in 15 symptomatic patients with benign (n = 6) or malignant (n = 9) tracheobronchial strictures. Complications and improvement in respiratory status were evaluated. Stents were removed electively 6 months after placement in benign strictures or if complications occurred. Membrane degradation or separation from the wire mesh was evaluated in removed stents. RESULTS: A total of 17 stents were successfully placed and were well tolerated in all patients. Sputum retention, stent migration, and tissue hyperplasia occurred in 23.5% (n = 4), 17.6% (n = 3), and 17.6% (n = 3) of stents, respectively. A total of 11 stents were successfully removed electively 6 months after placement (n = 4) or when complications occurred (n = 7). All 11 such stents were removed without difficulty with use of standard techniques, antecedent balloon dilation being necessary in two cases as a result of tissue hyperplasia. No removed stent showed signs of membrane degradation, and two removed stents showed signs of membrane separation from the mesh. CONCLUSIONS: PTFE-covered retrievable expandable nitinol stents were effective in the treatment of tracheobronchial strictures. Stent removal was easy with use of standard techniques, and no removed stent showed evidence of membrane degradation. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the safety and clinical effectiveness of a covered retrievable expandable nitinol stent for the treatment of malignant tracheobronchial stricture and/or esophagorespiratory fistula (ERF). MATERIALS AND METHODS: With fluoroscopic guidance, stents were placed in 35 symptomatic patients with malignant tracheobronchial stricture and/or ERF in most cases caused by lung or esophageal cancer. The site of stricture was most commonly at the trachea or left main bronchus. If there were complications, the stent was removed with a retrieval set. Nine patients had combined symptomatic ERF. RESULTS: A total of 47 tracheobronchial stents were placed and were technically successful and well-tolerated in all patients. Improvement of dyspnea was achieved in 92% of the patients (24 of 26 patients). Associated ERF in nine patients was effectively treated with tracheobronchial stent placement with or without esophageal stent placement. Stent migration, tumor overgrowth, symptomatic sputum retention, and hemoptysis occurred in 17% (6/35), 6% (2/35), 20% (7/35), and 17% (6/35) of patients, respectively. There were no documented cases of tumor ingrowth. Stent removal was performed easily in five patients when stent migration (n = 2), severe pain (n = 1), tumor overgrowth (n = 1), or persistent gastrobronchial fistula (n = 1) developed. All patients died 2 days to 26 weeks (mean, 9.62 weeks) after stent placement because of disease progression (n = 18), pneumonia (n = 9), hemoptysis (n = 5), or unknown cause (n = 3). CONCLUSION: Use of a covered retrievable expandable nitinol stent is a safe and effective method for relieving dyspnea. This procedure contributed to improved quality of life for patients with malignant tracheobronchial stricture and/or ERF. Stent retrievability was useful in resolving stent-related complications. 相似文献
