[Intubation of neoplastic esophageal stenoses. A new prosthesis with an antireflux device].

A preliminary communication on the excellent results of a new intraluminal prosthesis for palliative intubation of advanced oesophageal of cardial carcinoma is reported. Such prothesis includes an original and effective device to avoid gastro-oesophageal reflux and the ensuing peptic oesophagitis. Piloroplasty is considered convenient as an adjuvant in the prevention of gastro-oesophageal reflux.
