Abstract
Self-expandable stents are widely available for the treatment of perforation of the gastrointestinal tract. Because of the risk of migration, there has been no report of the use of self-expandable stents for the treatment of perforation of the colon or rectum.

Fully covered, self-expandable metallic stents can be considered useful tools for management of this condition.
