A 14-month-old male presented to the emergency department with a 4-day history of vomiting after the intake of liquids or solids. During the admission, imaging studies revealed an esophageal web, a form of congenital esophageal stenosis. He was treated with a combination of Endoluminal Functional Lumen Imaging Probe (EndoFLIP) and controlled radial expansion (CRE) balloon dilation, followed by EndoFLIP and EsoFLIP dilation 1 month later. The patient's vomiting resolved after treatment, and he was able to gain weight. This report describes one of the first cases of applying EndoFLIP and EsoFLIP to treat an esophageal web in a pediatric patient.
一名14个月大的男性因摄入液体或固体后出现4天呕吐史而就诊于急诊科。入院期间，影像学检查发现食管蹼，这是一种先天性食管狭窄的形式。他接受了腔内功能性管腔成像探头（EndoFLIP）和可控径向扩张（CRE）球囊扩张联合治疗，1个月后又进行了EndoFLIP和EsoFLIP扩张。治疗后患者的呕吐症状消失，体重增加。本报告描述了首例应用EndoFLIP和EsoFLIP治疗小儿食管蹼的病例之一。
