MULTI-LEVEL STENTING OF MALIGNANT COLONIC OBSTRUCTIONS FROM MULTI-LEVEL BREAST CANCER COLONIC METASTASIS

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video summarizes a case study in which a 54-year-old woman with stage 4 breast cancer and colonic obstruction underwent multilevel stenting using self-expanding metallic stents. Multiple colonic metastases were identified, and the procedure involved the use of endoscopes and fluoroscopic guidance to introduce guide wires and dilate strictures before deploying the stents. The stents were successfully placed without any complications, allowing for the passage of contrast and relieving the obstruction. The procedure was deemed safe and effective for palliating a patient with multilevel metastases.
