Small Bowel Obstruction Caused by Migration of Fractured Metal Stent in Patients with Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction : A Report of Two Cases and Review of the Literature

Gastroduodenal stenting (GDS) is a less invasive alternative to gastrojejunostomy for the management of malignant gastric outlet obstruction (mGOO). GDS is a minimally invasive treatment with good technical and clinical success, and severe complications that require surgical intervention are rare. Stent fracture is an uncommon complication associated with GDS; however, migration of the fractured distal segment can result in small bowel obstruction. Adverse effects of stent fractures in patients with mGOO have rarely been reported. We herein report two surgical cases of small bowel obstruction caused by the migration of fractured metal stent in patients with mGOO.
