Includes bibliographical references. Colonic self-expanding metallic stents (SEMS) are proven to be safe and effective in the management of selected cases of malignant colonic obstruction. Since 2005, we have used endoscopic decompression with SEMS as the primary treatment of all patients with left-sided obstructing colorectal cancer, in the absence of perforation. The purpose of the study was to assess the safety and efficacy of this management protocol. 2015-01-02T09:18:25Z 2015-01-02T09:18:25Z 2011 Master Thesis Masters MMed http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11006 eng application/pdf Department of Surgery Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
