Abstract
|
|
|
The patients was a 51 year-old woman suffering from dysphagia due to upper esophageal lye stricutue which had developed as a result of a suicide attempt 21 years ago. Shortly after that, she underwent feeding gastrostomy and has lived in the
gastrostomy
state for 21 years. After admission, she underwent a barium esophagoram which revealed a near total obstruction at the cricoid cartilage level. Bougie dilatation with American Dilation System was tried on day 3. But the spring tip marked guide
wire
which was to be used with the American Dilation System could not be passed through the stricuture. Therefore, we performed a bougie dilatation using angiographic guide wire M(H-AG-35in-150cm) with success.
On day 14, she underwent a barium esophagogram which revealed her improved condition, and she was discharged on day 16.
