1 Palliation of Inoperable Esophageal Carcinoma With the Wallstent Endoprosthesis 
Richard H Feins, David W Johnstone, Eleftherios S Baronos, Scott M O'Neil  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 62, Issue 6, Pages (December 1996) DOI: /S (96)

2 Fig. 1 (A) Esophagogram demonstrating a malignant stricture in the middle esophagus. (B) Plain radiograph obtained after insertion of the stent, showing good placement and expansion relieving the obstruction. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (96) )

3 Fig. 2 The Wallstent measuring 100 mm × 20 mm is shown fully released. The central portion with the polymer layer is shown. The distal end of the delivery system (double black arrows) with its outer tube (black arrow) constraining a Wallstent (white arrow) can be seen. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (96) )

4 Fig. 3 (A) Positioning of the Wallstent under fluoroscopic control. The picture shows the metallic markers attached to the skin as well as the radiopaque markers of the delivery system. (B) The Wallstent is fully deployed. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (96) )

5 Fig. 4 (A) Image taken at fluoroscopy illustrating an angulated Wallstent after migration distally into the stomach. (B) A second stent was placed proximally and relieved the obstruction. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (96) )
