Abstract

Esophageal strictures due to malignant diseases are treated with self-expanding metalicic stents. However, experience is limited with these metalic stents in the cervical esophagus. Due to technical difficulties and procedure-related complications, the cervical esophagus has been assigned as a risky area for stenting procedures. Another encountered problem is patient discomfort after the procedure. In this case report, we present three patients with cervical esophageal strictures who were successfully treated with self-expandable metalic stents. Two of these patients had inoperable esophageal carcinoma and the third had benign stenosis due to radiotherapy of larynx carcinoma. The two patients with malignant disease survived four and six months, respectively, after the procedure. The last patient with benign disease is still alive and has been without dysphagia symptom for six months.

Özet

Malign hastalıklara bağlı olarak gelişen özofagus striktürlerinin tedavisinde «self-expandable» metal stentler kullanılmaktadır. Ancak bu metal stentlerin servikal özofagusta kullanımları ile ilgili deneyim kısıtlıdır. Teknik zorluklar ve işleme bağlı komplikasyonlar nedeniyle, servikal özofagus bölgesi stent işlemleri için riskli bölge olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Diğer bir karşılaşılan problem ise, hastanın işlem sonrası yaşadığı rahatsızlıktır. Bu olgu sunumunda, servikal «self-expandable» metal stent yerleştirilerek başarıyla tedavi edilen üç olguyu sunuyoruz. Hastalar defalarca uygulanan endoskopik dilatasyon tedavilerine yanıtsız olarak kabul edilmişlerdi. Bu hastaların ikisi inoperabl özofagus karsinomu, diğeri ise larinks kanserine uygulanan radyoterapi sonrası gelişen striktür olgusu idi. Malign hastalığı olan iki olgu, işlemden sonra sırasıyla 4 ve 6 ay yaşam sürdü. Son olarak benign etiyolojisi olan hasta halen hayatta olup, işlemden sonraki altı aylık süre içinde disfaji semptomu tanımlamamıştır.
