- W4311271567 abstract "<b><i>Background and Aims:</i></b> Benign esophageal strictures often present with dysphagia and can significantly impair a patient’s quality of life, especially when refractory to standard endoscopic techniques. When repeat dilations fail to achieve an adequate luminal diameter or resolve dysphagia, further therapy with needle-knife or steroid injections is needed. However, patients can still clinically fail. To manage such strictures, we employed a novel combination of all three techniques. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Single-center case series of adult patients with benign strictures that were refractory to conventional endoscopic therapy and removable self-expanding metal stenting. Primary clinical success was defined as complete resolution in dysphagia. Secondary outcomes included periodic dilation index (frequency of dilations over the follow-up time), esophageal diameter changes, technical success, and complications. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Four patients (median age 49.7 years old, interquartile range [IQR] 30–59) underwent endoscopic therapy for complex, benign strictures using our triple therapy technique. Etiologies of the strictures included peptic strictures (<i>n</i> = 3) and an anastomotic stricture (<i>n</i> = 1). There was 100% technical success rate with no associated adverse events. There was a 50% clinical success rate, with 1 additional patient having partial improvement in dysphagia. The median diameter of the esophagus before and after triple therapy was 3.2 mm (IQR 3.5–5.5) and 12.8 mm (IQR 11.7–14.2), respectively. The periodic dilation index was 6.3 before and 1.5 after triple therapy. The median length of follow-up was 362.5 days. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Triple combination therapy may be useful in benign strictures that are refractory to standard techniques. Larger studies are needed to validate these findings." @default.
