Abstract:
[Summary] Benign esophageal strictures can arise from various causes and mainly induce dysphagia .Commonly , the majority of benign esophageal strictures can achieve long-term relief through about three dilation sessions .However, some refractory benign esophageal strictures require other treatments , such as endoscopic stent placement and intralesional drug injection , but these treatments just attain short-time satisfactory results with a disappointingly low rate of long-term improvement.Recently, biodegradable stents and drug-eluting stents are developing and have obtained the positive effects .In this paper , we performed a review about the treatment of benign esophageal strictures .
