| pubmed-article:16378188 | pubmed:abstractText | Many patients with advanced esophageal cancer have a stent inserted in the esophagus, but very little else can be done. We devised a new method of delivering thermotherapy using an implant heating system (IHS) with a metallic stent. To our knowledge, there are no other reports of thermotherapy using metallic stents. We report our clinical results of treating patients with this new technique. | lld:pubmed |
