Abstract
Endoscopic variceal ligation is a preferred endoscopic method to treat esophageal variceal bleeding. Esophageal stricture complicated by endoscopic ligation is very unusual. We report a case of symptomatic esophageal stricture after variceal ligation. Endoscopic balloon dilatation was used to treat the stricture successfully. The possible mechanism of stricture formation is discussed.
