About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Esophageal Stricture focused on measuring Esophageal Stricture, mitomycin C, endoscopy

Eligibility Criteria

29 Years - 75 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • aged more than 29 year and less than 75 year
  • refractory benign esophageal stricture who had the symptoms of dysphagia score suggested by Mellow et al greater than 3 (0: able to eat a normal diet, 1: able to eat some solid food, 2: able to eat some semi-solids only, 3: able to swallow liquids only, 4: complete dysphagia)

Exclusion Criteria: Patients who have at least one of following conditions were excluded from our study

  • malignant esophageal stricture
  • multiple sites of esophageal stricture
  • pregnant or breast feeding status
  • clinical deterioration not tolerated to endoscopic procedures
  • esophageal motility disorders
  • esophageal leakage or fistula
  • hypersensitivity to mitomycin C
  • bleeding tendency due to thrombocytopenia or clotting disorders

Sites / Locations

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Intralesional Mitomycin-C (MMC) injection has recently been introduced to resolve refractory benign esophageal stricture mostly in children. The investigators aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of endoscopic postdilation intralesional injection of MMC in adults with refractory benign esophageal stricture.
Detailed Description
The participnts who have refractory benign esophageal stricture even after five or more sessions of bougination are prospectively enrolled. A submucosal needle injection of 4mL of a MMC preparation (0.5mg/mL) is endoscopically done with a 0.5mL of eight each injection mainly into the tearing esophageal wall, after esophageal bougie dilation is done upto 14mm in diameter. And then, repeated bouginations combined with MMC injection are done with the interval of eight weeks upto 3 times, if dysphagia symptoms recurr with dysphagis score 3 or more. Initial and overall clinical success rates are evaluated with drug and procedure-related complication rates during the follow-up period of at least 1 year.
