An ideal stent does not yet exist for these conditions. Recently, fully covered self-expandable metallic stents (SEMS) have been commercialized with potential use in benign airway strictures. &lt;i&gt;Objective:&lt;\/i&gt; We retrospectively reviewed the clinical effectiveness of fully covered SEMS in the management of benign strictures. &lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt; A total of 17 patients received 20 stents: 7 Silmet\u00ae, 8 Taewoong\u00ae and 5 Alveolus\u00ae stents. Ten stents were deployed in a structural postintubation tracheal stenosis. Other indications were multinodular goiter, anastomotic stricture, endobronchial posttuberculosis scar, damaged cartilage and relapsing polychondritis. &lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt; In our series, the short-term (&lt;12 weeks after stent deployment) complication rate was 75%, requiring stent removal in 60%. Overall, stent migration was observed in 65%, stent fracture in 15%, shriveling of the stent in 10% and granulation formation in 10%. &lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt; The use of fully covered SEMS for the treatment of benign airway strictures is associated with a high short-term complication rate requiring stent removal. We have abandoned in our clinical practice the use of fully covered SEMS for benign airway strictures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000203364","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,2,18]],"date-time":"2009-02-18T11:55:08Z","timestamp":1234958108000},"page":"420-426","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":48,"title":["Performance of Fully Covered Self-Expanding Metallic Stents in Benign Airway Strictures"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"77","author":[{"given":"Christophe","family":"Dooms","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tom","family":"De Keukeleire","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Annelies","family":"Janssens","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kris","family":"Carron","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,2,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378%2Fchest.109.3.626"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F00128594-199601000-00003"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.athoracsur.2004.05.062"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0022-5223%2803%2900361-1"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378%2Fchest.07-0242"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378%2Fchest.127.2.482"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378%2Fchest.127.6.2106"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F01.RVI.0000203803.98007.9F"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.athoracsur.2007.11.051"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1183%2F09031936.00132804"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1034%2Fj.1399-3003.1999.13d32.x"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1183%2F09031936.00020906"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0033-8389%2805%2970170-6"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067%2Fmtc.2000.110383"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378%2Fchest.130.5.1419"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.athoracsur.2006.02.028"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214%2FAJR.06.0888"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000108784"}],"container-title":["Respiration"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/203364","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/203364","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T22:55:49Z","timestamp":1745448949000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000203364"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2009]]},"references-count":18,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,5,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000203364","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0025-7931","1423-0356"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0025-7931","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-0356","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2009]]}}}
