Overview
Double Pig Tail Stent-assisted Fixation of Fully-Covered Metal Stents for the Treatment of Benign Duodenal Strictures
Description
This study uses a double pig-tail stent for cross fixation of a fully-covered stent in the duodenum to reduce the incidence of displacement and ensure the stent can effectively expand the narrowed area, thereby alleviating patient symptoms.
The aim of this study is to explore the safety and efficacy of a double pig-tail stent-assisted fixation of a fully-covered stent for the treatment of benign duodenal strictures, further clarifying its long-term efficacy and providing strong support for the placement of fully-covered stents in treating benign duodenal strictures.
