Biodegradable stent in non-vascular interventions
Original language description
Aim: We present a group of patients, who underwent intervention procedures of the esophagus and biliary tract with the implantation of biodegradable (BDG) stents. Material and methods: BDG stent as stenoses treatment is a relatively young method. Its aimis to bridge stenotic section, then it will gradually degradate and separate. We have 15 patients between 2007 and 2009. Results: In group of patients with esophageal stents, one got 3 BDG stents gradually due to restenosis. In another case was the anastomotic stenosis dealt with metallic and plastic stents, which both dislocated, so BDG stent was used. In group of benign biliary tract stenoses, 5 patients were successfully treated with BDG stents. In patients with malignant biliary stenoses two patients had to underwent early biliary drainage because of stent failure. There are no long-term data in another two patients with recent stent implantation. There were no complications with stent placement.
