Predictors of clinical outcome of colonic stents in patients with malignant large-bowel obstruction due to extracolonic malignancy

Colonic stent placement in patients with large-bowel obstruction (LBO) secondary to extra colonic malignancy (ECM) has been evaluated in small series with heterogeneous results. Our aim is to better characterize the technical and clinical success of colonic stent placement and to identify factors that affect this success in ECM patients.
