Tools for endoscopic stricture dilation
To promote the appropriate use of new or emerging endoscopic technologies and those technologies that have an impact on endoscopic practice, the ASGE Technology Committee presents relevant information to practicing physicians in the form of technology reviews. Evidence-based methodology is used whereby a MEDLINE literature search is performed to identify pertinent clinical studies on the topic,...
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 کاملEndoscopic Balloon Dilatation of Benign Esophageal Stricture—A Nonhazardous Procedure?
Balloon dilatation of benign esophageal strictures has been widely used since its introduction. We have performed 224 dilatation procedures in 52 patients. Dilatation was done as an outpatient procedure. Strictures were due to reflux esophagitis in 25 patients, anastomatic stenosis in 6, achalasia in 5, complications of sclerotherapy in 5, corrosive lesions in 3, and long-standing nasogastric i...
متن کاملRisk of perforation in balloon dilation associated with steroid injection for preventing esophageal stricture after endoscopic submucosal dissection
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Endoscopic local steroid injection (LSI) has been used to prevent esophageal strictures after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for superficial esophageal neoplasms (SENs). This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LSI therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS From May 2007 to September 2014, at four institutions, 40 consecutive patients with SENs were treat...
متن کاملPredictors of Esophageal Stricture Formation Post Endoscopic Mucosal Resection
BACKGROUND/AIMS Stricture formation is a common complication after endoscopic mucosal resection. Predictors of stricture formation have not been well studied. METHODS We conducted a retrospective, observational, descriptive study by using a prospective endoscopic mucosal resection database in a tertiary referral center. For each patient, we extracted the age, sex, lesion size, use of ablative...
