Oncologic safety of colonic stenting as a bridge to surgery in left-sided malignant colonic obstruction: Current evidence and prospects

Abstract: Approximately 7%-29% of patients with colorectal cancer present with colonic obstruction. The concept of self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) insertion as a bridge to surgery (BTS) is appealing. However, concerns on colonic stenting possibly impairing oncologic outcomes have been raised. This study aimed to review current evidence on the short- and long-term oncologic outcomes of SEMS insertion as BTS for left-sided malignant colonic obstruction. For short-term outcomes, colonic stenting facilitates a laparoscop… Show more

“…In particular, bevacizumab-based chemotherapy is associated with a high risk of GI perforation[ 57 ]. It has also been claimed that perforation may result in further cancer recurrence and peritoneal dissemination[ 58 , 59 ]. In the present case, curative resection of colonic metastasis was achieved 18 d after SEMS implantation, in which the SEMS allowed careful evaluation of the tumor status and improved the patient’s general condition.…”
