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]

Interventions for treatment of esophageal strictures include:

  • Dilators
  • Stents
  • Brachytherapy

Dilators

There are two main forms of dilation including:[3][4][5]

  • Mechanical dilator (bougie) that can be done with
    • Guidewire such as savary-gilliard and eder-puestow olive dilators
    • Nonguidewire such as maloney and hurst dilator 
  • Balloon dilators

The following conditions need more cautious dilation because of increased risk of rupture and severity of underlying disease. [2]
