    Lumen-apposing metal stents delivery requires a minimum of space at the target structure. This means around 14mm for accurate delivery of the 8x8mm stent distal flange. After several cases of distal flange misdeployment we developed a novel delivery method to prevent it. This method works only with 6x8mm and 8x8mm stents. After access of the target structure, we made minimal back and forth catheter movements that end delivering the distal flange at the catheter tip. This is possible because the stent is non-resheathable. We believe this method could be a useful option in certain situations.
