Is interventional treatment for esophageal stricture good?

Esophageal stenosis is not only physically painful but also psychologically tormenting for patients. Therefore, in order to effectively solve these problems, correct treatment is needed. Interventional therapy is safe, low-cost, and effective.

1. Severe esophageal stenosis, whether benign or malignant in the late stage, seriously affects the patient's eating, causing psychological pain, nutritional deficiencies, and even endangering life. Interventional methods are adopted. A guide wire is inserted through the mouth to cross the stenosis segment and then an expandable stent is used for treatment. This can immediately relieve esophageal stenosis obstruction, restore eating, and quickly improve the patient's quality of life. It is safe, effective, and low-cost. It has become the main method for treating this disease. In order to reduce the complications of the operation and ensure the smooth completion of the operation, the patient's active cooperation in psychology and physiology is guaranteed through preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care, especially to ensure the accurate, safe, and quick completion of the operation.

2. The entire process of interventional treatment is carried out under the guidance and monitoring of imaging equipment. It can accurately and directly reach the local lesion without major trauma. Therefore, it has the advantages of accuracy, safety, efficiency, wide indications, and few complications. It has now become the preferred treatment method for some diseases.

3. The advantages of interventional treatment over surgical treatment are: ① It does not require surgery, no wounds or only a skin incision of a few millimeters to complete the treatment, so it is less traumatic; ② Most patients only need local anesthesia rather than general anesthesia, which reduces the risk of anesthesia; ③ There is little damage to normal tissues, recovery is fast, and hospitalization time is short; ④ For elderly critically ill patients who cannot tolerate surgery or patients who have no chance of surgery, intervention can also provide good treatment.
