Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients >= 18 years of age with malignant symptomatic gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) requiring intervention with an unresectable malignant lesion (biopsy proven) or borderline/ locally advanced planned for neo-adjuvant therapy prior to surgery. 2. GOO confirmed endoscopically or radiologically. 3. GOOS (gastric outlet obstruction score) 0 (no oral intake) or 1 (only liquids). 4. The patient who gives informed consent for participation in the study.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Lack of informed consent 2. Pregnancy 3. Coagulation disorder (INR >1.5 or platelet count 4. Multiple level bowel obstruction confirmed radiologically (contrast study or computed tomography scans) 5. Prior endoscopic or surgical treatment for GOO. 6. Severe comorbidities precluding endoscopic treatment (cardiorespiratory instability, severe pulmonary disease, bleeding disorder) 7. Previous gastric, periampullary or duodenal surgery 8. Complete GOO evidenced by inability to either pass a wire/nasojejunal tube across the stricture and/or inability to opacify small bowel distal to the malignant stricture 9. Malignant conditions involving the stomach such as Linitis plastica, malignancy of the proximal stomach etc. 10. Life expectancy of less than 1 month
