Abstract

A 99-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with dysphagia as the chief complaint. Radiographic and endoscopic examination of the esophagus showed large mass with severe stenosis. The pathological diagnosis was well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma.
As carcinoma was far advanced, self-expanding metal stent (Ultraflex^®，esophageal prosthesis, Microvasive Division, Boston Scientific, Denmark) was implanted endoscopically. The stent expanded fully and migration did not occurred. Dysphagia disappeared dramatically and there were no complaints except just after insertion.
In comparison with plastic stent, Ultraflex^® is more easily inserted, with less discomfort and migration.
