Safe and Proper Management of Esophageal Stricture Using Endoscopic Esophageal Dilation
Treatment of esophageal stricture is important because esophageal stricture reduces the quality of life of patients by increasing their risks of dysphagia, weight loss, nutritional imbalance, and pneumonia due to aspiration. Esophageal stricture is mainly classified as benign or malignant esophageal stricture, and may occur as fibrous production and collagen deposition due to chronic ulceration...
متن کاملEndoscopic dilation of esophageal stricture without fluoroscopy is safe and effective.
AIM Endoscopic dilation of esophageal strictures is a commonly performed procedure in the management of dysphagia. The procedure is usually done with fluoroscopic guidance. The aim of this study was to assess the use of Tracer guide wire in conjunction with Savary-Gilliard dilators in the dilation of tight esophageal strictures without fluoroscopy. METHODS Fifty-five patients with significant...
متن کاملManagement of complete esophageal stricture after treatment of head and neck cancer using combined anterograde retrograde esophageal dilation.
BACKGROUND Complete esophageal stricture is a difficult problem to manage. There is limited literature to support clinical decision-making. To evaluate outcomes and efficacy, we performed a retrospective medical chart review of patients who received combined anterograde retrograde esophageal dilation (CARD) between 2002 and 2009 at our institution. METHODS Fifteen patients were identified who...
متن کاملEsophageal Stricture Prevention after Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection
Advances in diagnostic modalities and improvement in surveillance programs for Barrett esophagus has resulted in an increase in the incidence of superficial esophageal cancers (SECs). SEC, due to their limited metastatic potential, are amenable to non-invasive treatment modalities. Endoscopic ultrasound, endoscopic mucosal resection, and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) are some of the ne...
متن کاملManagement of esophageal stricture after complete circular endoscopic submucosal dissection for superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
BACKGROUND Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) permits removal of esophageal epithelial neoplasms en bloc, but is associated with esophageal stenosis, particularly when ESD involves the entire circumference of the esophageal lumen. We examined the effectiveness of systemic steroid administration for control of postprocedural esophageal stricture after complete circular ESD. METHODS Seven p...
