Abstract
Symptomatic stenosis after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) occurs in up to 4% of patients due to scarring, staple line rotation and staple line imbrications. Management with traditional hydrostatic through-the-scope dilation balloons often fails due to limited expansion force and small balloon diameter. Pneumatic balloon dilation with 30-35mm has gained attraction for this indication. Our aim was to describe a multicenter experience of the effectiveness and safety of pneumatic balloon dilation for management of symptomatic SG stenosis.
