- Title
Editorial: oesophageal dilation in eosinophilic oesophagitis-can and should, but when and how?
- Authors
Kia, L.; Hirano, I.
- Abstract
The authors discuss findings of a study on impact of oesophageal dilation in eosinophilic oesophagitis. They state management strategies for eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE) like topical corticosteroids that arrest inflammation, and dietary interventions, and mention use of oesophageal distensibility measurements using the functional luminal imaging probe. They note that the study was limited to dilation for strictures that do not respond to medical/diet therapy.
