We report two patients with inoperable malignant stenosis of gastric antrum who were treated with endoscopic placement of a 22 mm Wallstent metallic prosthesis. In one patient, the endoscope was introduced simultaneously with the prosthesis. Different types of pincers were introduced through the endoscope's canal, which aided the movement and placement of the prosthesis. In the other patient, to broaden the stenosis a pediatric endoscope was introduced with a guide inside the canal, which was held straight externally and which facilitated the positioning of the prosthesis. There were no complications and the patients were discharged after 48 hours able to follow a normal oral diet. Both patients are still living, six and four months respectively after the procedure.
