Early Versus Late Endoscopic Stenting for Refractory Benign Esophageal Strictures
This project is being done to compare two current treatment clinical options for management of RBES: 1) Frequent dilations followed by temporary esophageal stent placement if dilations fail, or 2) Early stent placement followed by dilations
Treatment of Central Airway Stenoses Using Computer-Assisted Customized 3d Stents TATUM
Airway stenting is usually efficient to treat central airway obstruction but can lead to severe and potentially lethal complications (stent migration, obstructive granuloma, perforation, and hemoptysis). 3D customized airway stents (computer-aided conception using CT-scan data), perfectly suited to airway anatomy, should improve the tolerance and safety of airway stenting. We …
A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Study of External Pancreatic Duct Stents in Pancreaticoduodenectomy
The prognostic value of external vs internal pancreatic duct stents after pancreaticoduodenectomy remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the benefits of external and internal stents using the Updated Alternative Fistula Risk Score in both high-risk and low-risk patients with regard to the incidence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula.
Biodegradable Stents in Liver Transplant RecipIents for Treatment of Biliary Anastomotic Strictures
Biliary complications after liver transplantation (LT) remain common and are associated with higher morbidity in liver transplant recipients and liver graft failure. Anastomotic biliary strictures are the most common biliary strictures after LT. Today, the gold standard for treatment remains endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with either multiple plastic stenting (MPS) …
Transpyloric Stenting as a Predictor for G-POEM for Refractory Gastroparesis
This is a prospective sham study to investigate the role of transpyloric stenting with lumen apposing metal stent (LAMS) as a predictor for clinical response to gastric per-oral endoscopic pyloromyotomy (GPOEM) for refractory gastroparesis. The study hypothesizes that clinical improvement with transpyloric stenting in patients with refractory gastroparesis is a …
Drug-eluting Stenting Versus Medical Treatment for Extracranial Vertebral Artery Stenosis
Posterior circulation stroke accounts for 20% of all ischemic stroke. Approximately one quarter of posterior circulation strokes are due to stenosis in the vertebral artery and basilar artery. Two previous randomized controlled trials focusing on vertebral artery stenting, the Vertebral Artery Stenting Trial (VAST) and the Vertebral Artery Ischaemia Stenting …
Angioplasty-stenting vs Optimal Medical Treatment on Post-thrombotic Syndrome Reduction
The project will highlight the potential benefit of endovascular therapy on post thrombotic syndrome reduction after proximal iliac DVT. There is actually not real standard of care for the treatment of this pathology. A clear evidence of efficacy of endovascular therapy will be of great benefit for both the patients …
Impact of High Flow Therapy on Complications Related to Airway Stenting
The application of HFNC therapy in patients with airway stent, improving both humidification and clearance of the airway secretion, could potentially reduce the risk of mucoid impaction, respiratory infections and granulation. HFNC therapy could be superior to nebulization of normal saline (usual care) in order to keep the stent cleaned, …
IntraCranial Atherosclerosis Related Large-vessel Occlusion Treated With Urgent Stenting (ICARUS)
The goal of this international, multi-center, randomized clinical trial is to compare two treatment options, early intracranial stenting and continued stent-retriever or aspiration based endovascular treatment, for stroke patients with a large vessel occlusion, who experienced failure of recanalisation after initial treatment due to intracranial atherosclerosis.
Internal Biodegradable Stent Versus Non-Stent in Patients at High-Risk of Developing Fistula After Pancreatoduodenectomy
The aim of this randomized controlled study is to compare the efficacy of biodegradable internal pancreatic stenting versus no stenting in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), focusing on a possible superiority association of the device in preventing clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF). Patients undergoing PD will be randomized into two …
