The traditional nonoperative management of benign esophageal stenoses has been bougienage; recently, balloon dilatation has become available. Balloon dilatation can be accomplished with balloons that are passed over a guide-wire or with balloons that are passed through the working channel of an endoscope. In the present paper, the methodologies for the use of these two types of balloons are described and the literature reviewed. Balloon dilatation appears to be an efficacious and a safe alternative to bougies.
良性食管狭窄的传统非手术治疗方法是探条扩张术；最近，球囊扩张术已开始应用。球囊扩张术可通过沿导丝插入的球囊或经内窥镜工作通道插入的球囊来完成。本文描述了这两种球囊的使用方法并回顾了相关文献。球囊扩张术似乎是探条扩张术一种有效且安全的替代方法。
