Abstract
Management of malignant large bowel obstruction is challenging and requires a multidisciplinary approach. Nowadays a number of different colorectal stents are available and their application depend on the site and morphology of the colorectal stricture and the clinical indication (bridge to surgery/palliation). In this article indication, technique, and outcome of colorectal stenting will be discussed.
