摘要:
We compared radiology and endoscopy in 80 patients with peptic esophageal stricture, with special attention to radiographic sensitivity for stricture caliber. Each stricture was classified by length into three types: 1) short (6–25 mm in length); 2) annular (under 6 mm in length); and 3) long (over 25 mm in length). Overall, radiology detected 95% of all strictures, including 90% of those over 1 cm in caliber. Morphologically, 75% of all strictures were short; 14% annular, and 11% long. Radiographically, smooth-stricture margins reliably excluded active esophagitis, while irregularity correlated well with its presence. Properly performed, barium esophagram can accurately detect esophageal strictures with a sensitivity approximating that of endoscopy.
