Definitive chemoradiotherapy can have curative potential in unresectable patients with malignant stricture due to locally advanced esophageal carcinoma, however, dysphagia is the principal problem in patients who had recurrence or who did not respond to chemoradiotherapy. In this prospective study, we investigated the efficacy and feasibility of metallic stent implantation for patients with dysphagia after chemoradiotherapy failed.
