Official title
Randomized Prospective Trial of Balloon Dilation Technique for Benign Esophageal Strictures.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is the first head to head, prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial comparing two different approaches of balloon dilation (standard versus progressive dilation) for benign esophageal strictures. A retrospective study on patients with benign esophageal strictures that underwent balloon dilation using the proposed technique found considerable symptomatic improvement in dysphagia. The proposed balloon dilation method is a novel approach that will require fewer sessions of dilation and use fewer balloon dilation catheters to achieve a maximum balloon diameter of 18mm and result in a significant symptomatic improvement.
