ASGE Postgraduate Course at ACG 2022: Expanding the Scope of Fundamental and Advanced Endoscopy

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Rabia Latorre, the Director of Endoscopy at Bellevue at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, presents a case of a 50-year-old female with a malignant stricture in her esophagus. The patient had a previous stent placement which had migrated into the stomach. The medical team attempted to remove the old stent but encountered difficulties as it had become brittle. Eventually, a new stent was placed to create a conduit pathway for the removal of the old stent. The video highlights the risks of stent migration and provides tips for securing and removing esophageal stents. No credits were mentioned in the transcript.
