Balloon dilation catheters were used to treat 94 gastrointestinal strictures in 92 patients over a 6-year period. Long-term follow-up data were obtained for 80 of these patients, with a mean follow-up period of 389 days. Overall, of the patients who underwent a successful dilation procedure, 83% remained symptom free after 1 year, and 69% after 2 years. The location of the stricture did not significantly influence the long-term outcome, nor did procedure characteristics, aside from primary technical failure. Both patients with malignant strictures and those whose strictures were associated with an anastomosis were more likely than other patients to have recurrent symptoms.
在6年期间，使用球囊扩张导管治疗了92例患者的94处胃肠道狭窄。对其中80例患者进行了长期随访，平均随访期为389天。总体而言，成功接受扩张手术的患者中，83%在1年后无症状，2年后为69%。除原发性技术失败外，狭窄部位和手术特征均未对长期结果产生显著影响。恶性狭窄患者和狭窄与吻合口相关的患者比其他患者更易出现症状复发。
