Endoscopic Suturing of Esophageal Stent

Abstract

Migration is the most common complication of placing an
esophageal fully covered self-expanding metal stent (FCSEMS).
Prior Studies have demonstrated high migration rates of
FCSEMS leading to additional invasive procedures.1 We report a
case of esophageal FCSEMS placement with endoscopic suturing
which prevented migration of the stent and a successful post
procedure course.
