Malignant esophageal obstruction in 24 patients was treated using the neodymium:ytrium, aluminum, garnet laser. There were 15 males and nine females; the average age was 70.9 years. There were 17 adenocarcinomas and seven squamous cell carcinomas, with two of these being recurrent after radiation th

The prograde and retrograde approaches to the treatment of malignant esophageal obstruction with the NdYAG, or neodymium: yttrium, aluminum, garnet, laser are compared. With the prograde technique, tumor destruction proceeds from the proximal to the distal tumor margin. In retrograde treatment, the
