Overview
Esophageal stricture procedure
The most common cause of esophageal stricture is gastroesophageal reflux disease. Treatment for esophageal stricture is combination of dilation and proton pump inhibitors or H2 antagonist therapy.[1]
- The following conditions need more cautious dilation because of increased risk of rupture and severity of underlying disease. [2]
- Caustic strictures
- Radiation stricture
- Eosinophilic esophagitis due to increased risk of perforation
- Bleeding disorders
- Severe cardiovascular disease or pulmonary disease
Interventions for treatment of esophageal strictures include:
- Dilators
- Stents
- Brachytherapy
