Endoscopic stenting is increasingly being used in the management of
gastrointestinal luminal obstruction, and has become the current treatment of
choice for the palliation of blockage caused by malignant or benign growths. A
variety of stents have been developed to enhance the efficacy of the procedure,
and improvements are ongoing. In this article, we review the history of, and
recent advances in, gastrointestinal stenting. We describe the rationale behind
the design as well as the resulting outcome for each stent type.
