Fig. 2. Fluoroscopically guided balloon dilation for an anastomotic stricture in a 58-year-old patient. (A) Upper gastrointestinal (UGI) series prior to balloon dilation shows an anastomotic stricture (arrows) at the gastroduodenostomy site. (B) Initially, 15 mm diameter balloon dilation was easily accomplished (not shown), and the caliber of the balloon catheter was increased to 20 mm. The waist formation (arrow in B) disappeared after full dilation (C). (D) UGI series 1 month after balloon dilation shows improvement of the luminal diameter (arrows).
