Surgery

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]

  • Cautious dilation [2]
    • Caustic strictures
    • Radiation stricture
    • Eosinophilic esophagitis due to increased risk of perforation
    • Bleeding disorders
    • Severe cardiovascular disease or pulmonary disease
  • Dilators[2] [3][4]
    • Mechanical ( 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
  • Self-expandable plastic or metal stents placement for patients with refractory esophageal stricture [5][6]
  • Self dilation at home  with bougie dilators [7]

  • local steroid injection in refractory strictures by inhibiting collagen formation [8]
  • Pharyngoesophageal puncture in severe upper esophageal stenosis after radiation therapy for laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancers [9]
  • Brachytherapy is recommended among patients with malignant esophageal stricture with a life expectancy more than three months.[10]
  • Stent placement for malignant esophageal stricture palliative therapy with expected survival less than three months[10]
  • feeding tube and gastrostomy for patients that are not good candidate for surgery [11]

OR

  • Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with esophageal stricture. Sent placement is usually reserved for patients with either
    • Malignant esophageal strictures with a life expectancy less than three months[12]
    • [Indication 2]
    • [Indication 3]
  • The mainstay of treatment for [disease name] is medical therapy. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either:
    • [Indication 1]
    • [Indication 2]
    • [Indication 3]
  • The feasibility of surgery depends on the stage of [malignancy] at diagnosis.
