Esophageal Stenosis Caused by Peptic Esophagitis or Ulceration

New England Journal of Medicine, 1954
SINCE operations on the esophagus are now commonplace and since peptic stenosis of the esophagus is of great current interest to the internist, radiologist, endoscopist and thoracic surgeon, it seems appropriate to review this controversial subject and bring it up to date.

Isolated congenital esophageal stenosis

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1995
The incidence of congenital esophageal stenosis (CES) is approximately 1 in 25,000 to 50,000 live births. There is associated esophageal atresia in one third of cases; the remainder are classified as isolated CES. Histologically, the anomaly may include tracheobronchial remnants, a membranous diaphragm, or diffuse fibrosis of the muscularis and ...

Peptic esophageal stenosis in children

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1973
Abstract Of 192 cases of hiatus hernia, 121 were operated upon and 28 (14.5%) had peptic esophageal stenosis. Unduly prolonged medical treatment is likely to increase the incidence of stricture. Using conservative surgical procedures, a success rate of 85.7% has been achieved in the treatment of peptic esophageal stenosis without mortality.

Endosonography in the Assessment of Esophageal Stenosis

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 1998
EUS is an invaluable tool to delineate the cause of esophageal strictures. In primary esophageal carcinoma, EUS is the most accurate means for locoregional tumor staging. The addition of EUS FNA improves lymph node staging accuracy over EUS alone. EUS FNA can also play a role in diagnosing the cause of strictures associated with lymphadenopathy or ...

Congenital esophageal stenosis

Pediatric Surgery International, 1987
A series of 20 patients with congenital esophageal stenoses (CES), including 4 with tracheobronchial remnants, 6 with membranous diaphragm, and 10 with fibromuscular stenosis, is presented. The experience acquired by treating these patients is compared to 95 cases from the literature and a definition of CES is proposed.

Congenital esophageal stenosis in adults

The American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2000
Congenital esophageal stenosis is thought to be a rare disease confined to infancy and childhood with only a few case reports in adults described.We report five patients between the ages of 19 and 46 yr who presented with this disorder over a 2-yr period.Patients had been labeled with reflux strictures, webs, or as idiopathic in the past.

Congenital Esophageal Stenosis

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 1986
We treated a case of congenital membranous stenosis of the esophagus successfully by transendoscopic incision. We discuss various types of true congenital esophageal stenosis and their treatment, to distinguish these rare anomalies from the more frequently encountered acquired variety.
