Esophageal Metal Stents – Restoring Swallowing and Enhancing Patient Care

Esophageal Metal Stents

The Esophageal Metal Stent is a specialized medical device used to keep the esophagus open in patients with strictures or blockages. It is designed with a strong, flexible metal structure that adapts to the esophageal shape. The stent is available in fully, partially, and uncovered types for various clinical needs.

Product Evolution and Development

The idea of using stents in the esophagus has been around for many years, with initial models being fairly basic. Major progress was made in the late 1900s with the introduction of self-expanding metal stents (SEMS), which improved both flexibility and placement techniques. Since then, newer designs with covering options and better materials have been developed to improve results and minimize risks. These continuous improvements aim to make treatment more effective and comfortable for patients.

Why Choose Advin Health Care’s Esophageal Metal Stents?

Advin Health Care offers Esophageal Metal Stents that combine clinical reliability with patient-centered design. These stents are fully coated with silicone to help prevent tumor ingrowth and reduce food blockage, making them suitable for long-term use. The structure supports repositioning during placement, giving clinicians more control and accuracy. With flared ends and optimal radial force, the stent remains secure while effectively expanding the esophageal passage. Advin Health Care ensures each stent features a hook-and-cross design that allows gradual expansion for a smooth and comfortable fit.

Common Surgical Applications

The Esophageal Metal Stent is commonly used in:

• Esophageal cancer surgery
• Palliative care for malignant strictures
• Management of benign esophageal strictures
• Treatment of esophageal fistulas
• Post-surgical esophageal narrowing

Basic Instructions for Use

1. Choose the appropriate stent size based on patient anatomy.
2. Insert the stent over a guidewire using endoscopic guidance.
3. Gradually deploy the stent while monitoring placement.
4. Use the retrieval lasso for repositioning if required.
5. Confirm final positioning with fluoroscopic or endoscopic imaging.

Choosing the Right Esophageal Stent: Fully vs. Partially Covered

The choice between fully and partially covered esophageal stents depends on the patient’s condition and treatment goal. Fully covered stents help prevent tumor ingrowth and are easier to reposition or remove. Partially covered stents offer stronger anchorage and reduce the risk of migration. The final selection is made by the healthcare provider based on clinical needs.
