Self-expandable metal stents in malignant biliary obstruction: Back to the roots with uncovered stents as the “new” standard?

Abstract: Self-expandable metal stents in malignant biliary obstruction: Back to the roots with uncovered stents as the "new" standard? Both covered and uncovered SEMSs seem to be equally effective in terms of drainage and patency. Currently available data are not consistent in terms of adverse event rates, and large meta-analyses show no increased risk for adverse events in FCSEMs.

“…Of note, Wang and colleagues developed partially covered nitinol stents loaded with 5-fluorouracil or paclitaxel for esophageal cancer and found severe tissue responses, including inflammation, ulceration, and granulation, at the bare ends compared to the drug-loaded part in porcine esophageal tissues[ 25 ]. Since partially covered stents have not yet been proven to be effective in the prevention of stent migration for malignant biliary strictures and still need to be further evaluated in clinical trials[ 38 , 39 ], in our study, we used a fully covered stent design to alleviate tissue responses.…”

“…As próteses metálicas devem ser a primeira escolha para pacientes com expectativa de vida superior a 4 meses, uma vez que nesse período seria necessário ao menos duas próteses plásticas, implicando em similaridade no seu custo (FRANCO, 2015;BEYNA;NEUHAUS, 2018).…”

“…They are primarily preferred in malignant diseases of the biliary tree. Metallic stenting is performed in the palliation of jaundice secondary to cholangiocarcinoma, gallbladder, pancreas, ampulla of water, liver cancer and metastatic biliary tract tumors [3,4]. They promise a wider and longer lumen opening compared to plastic stents [5].…”
