Abstract

A combination of endoscopic laser therapy (ELT) and insertion of Wallstents is a good alternative therapy for palliation of esophageal carcinoma and was performed in 12 patients. The method allows repeated laser therapy and, if necessary, supplementary insertion of stents to maintain the patients' ability to swallow during their remaining lifespan.
