Overview

The mainstay of treatment for esophageal stricture is dilation. Proton pump inhibitors or H2 antagonists are recommended among all patients who develop esophageal stricture due to gastroesophageal reflux disease. Self-expandable plastic or metal stents placement is indicated for patients with refractory esophageal stricture. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either inability to dilate the stricture, frequent recurrence of dysphagia, extraesophageal manifestations and long term side effects of medical therapy

Surgery

Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with esophageal stricture because it can lead to serious morbidity and mortality. [1]

Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either:[2]
