[Early bougienage in cicatricial stenosis of the esophagus]. 1986

N A Maĭstrenko

An analysis of results of bougienage of patients with scarry stenosis of the esophagus has shown the importance of an individual approach to selection of methods of treatment. The effectiveness of bougienage mainly depends on its early beginning. The use of bougienage along a string and endoscopic dilatation enabled the conservative treatment to be used also in complicated cases of scarry stenosis of the esophagus. The absence of effect of bougienage is considered to be an indication to surgery.
