THE MEDICAL DIAGNOSTIC BALLOON DILATATION OF LONG AFTER BURN ESOPHAGEAL STRICTURE
Keywords:
esophagus, stricture, balloon dilatationAbstract
We have treated 15 ill persons with long esophageal stricture after burn by the method of balloon dilatation. More than 70% of patients had stricture with more than 8 сm length and this was proved by X-ray method. The most ofthe patients had dysphagia of III-IV level. During treatment we made the dysphagia level less. During the balloon dilatations we were seen that the main reason of person’s suffering was not the whole stricture, but its main rigid part with high density and with length not more than third part of the whole stricture.
