Bare-metal duodenal stents are tubular devices implanted in the duodenum to treat strictures caused by malignant tumors, helping to relieve gastric outlet obstructions. These mesh-like structures, made entirely of metal such as stainless steel, are expanded in place to restore normal digestive flow.
These devices are typically supplied as sterile, non-bioabsorbable implants and may include disposable tools to assist with implantation. They are regulated as medical devices intended for palliative treatment, with specific classifications varying by jurisdiction.
