Fluoroscopic images during esophageal dilation show a balloon traversing the esophageal stricture. After balloon dilation, the stricture remains, however, the degree of stenosis is improved. There is no esophageal leakage of contrast. Balloon dilation of esophageal strictures. Complications of this procedure are uncommon and included esophageal intramural lacerations, contained perforations, and esophageal rupture. #FridayQuizDay #FridayQuiz

A frontal radiograph (image 1) post-esophageal atresia repair shows a mediastinal bulge (arrow) displacing the trachea (arrowhead) to the left. An esophagram reveals a food bolus within the dilated proximal esophageal pouch (arrow). There is a small amount of aspiration outlining the tracheobronchial tree (arrowhead). Esophageal strictures are common following esophageal atresia repair. The stricture can lead to food bolus impaction.
Images from upper GI examination show an impacted food bolus (arrow) within the distal esophagus. Impacted food bolus is most commonly associated with eosinophilic esophagitis. Other underlying causes of a food bolus impaction near the entities that cause esophageal stricture. Eosinophilic esophagitis is an immune or antigen mediated esophagitis.
