The usefulness of a covered self-expandable metallic stent for benign esophageal stricture and perforation was well established. In case of benign disease, early stent removal was recommended within 6-8 weeks after placement. A case with severe esophageal stricture caused by incomplete stent removal 7 years after stent placement for spontaneous esophageal rupture was reported. Residual stent fragments could be removed by step-by-step multimodal endoscopic treatment, producing satisfactory luminal diameter of the esophagus. In particular, stent trimming with argon plasma coagulation was safe and effective strategy. The endoscopic stent removal is minimally invasive and should be attempted before surgical intervention; however, it is most important to ensure early stent removal before tissue ingrowth or overgrowth can develop.
