Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and investigate its safety of esophageal achalasia with retrievable metal stents. Methods Thirty cases for esophageal achalasia in our hospital were selected, and they were randomly divided into stent group and balloon group. The former were treated by retrievable metal stent, and the latter were treated endoscopic balloon-dilating. The dysphagia grade, clinical symptom scores and the situation of esophageal in-spection before treatment,after 1 month and 6 months of treatment, and the common complications were compared be-tween two groups. Results (1)The rusults of two groups in dysphagia grade and clinical symptom scores after 1 month and 6 months' treatment were obviously lower than those before therapy(P<0.05).(2)Two groups patients in dysphagia grade and clinical symptom scores after 1 month's treatment had no statistical difference (P>0.05),and after six months' treatment, the stent group patients' dysphagia grade and clinical symptom scores were lower than balloon group (P<0.05). (3)After treatment, the maximum diameter of the esophagus of two groups patients were significantly lower than before treatment (P<0.05), and the narrowest diameter of the cardia were significantly higher than before treatment (P<0.05).(4)The rates of common complications such as hemorrhage, perforation, pain, stent group were lower than the balloon group(P<0.05),but reflux stent group was higher than the balloon group(P<0.05). Conclusion The treatment of esophageal achalasia with endoscopic retrievable metal stent is simple, safe and effective, compared with balloon-dilating,its long-term efficacy is more excellent,and the complications are more lighter and less.
