摘要
Self-expanding metallic stents (SEMSs) are used to palliate malignant esophageal strictures. We describe a patient who had an extensive mediastinal turner for which he was receiving irradiation therapy; chest pain, hemoptysis, and recurrent Gram-negative pneumonia developed in this patient after stent placement. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy revealed protrusion of the SEMS into the tracheobronchial tree, a novel complication for this new type of stent.
