Predicting stent success in esophageal anastomotic leaks: the clinical significance of the CT-based defect-to-lumen ratio

Endoscopic stent placement is widely used for managing esophageal anastomotic leaks; however, reliable predictors of success remain poorly defined and often rely on absolute defect size. We hypothesised that relative defect geometry within the lumen might better predict mechanica...
