Study Summary

Researchers are trying to determine which suturing pattern for esophageal stent placement is more effective in a randomized fashion as currently what suturing pattern to use is an arbitrary decision.

Study Description

The participants who are receiving esophageal stent placement will be prospectively randomized to receive two suturing patterns (simple interrupted pattern and triangular pattern) for endoscopic esophageal stent fixation. We will investigate rate of the stent migration at 3-4 weeks by endoscopy after the stent placement as part of routine clinical care. Data of the duration of endoscopic suturing, adverse events, details of the stent used, indication for use will also be collected.
