Abstract
|
|
|
|
Balloon dilation and stent placement are increasingly being used when treating patients with benign gastrointestinal tract strictures, as surgery carries a high risk of morbidity and mortality. Fluoroscopically guided intervention permits precise fluoroscopic control of the balloon catheter and stent placement. This article reviews the techniques and outcomes of balloon dilation and stent placement for the management of benign gastroduodenal and colonic strictures.
