ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

We report our experience with endoscopic management of 3 men (aged 62, 63 and 65 years) with duodenal diaphragm disease following NSAID use for 5-15 years. In the first patient a 24 F through-the-scope balloon dilatation was attempted but failed; he subsequently underwent gastro-jejunostomy. The other two patients subsequently underwent radial incisions of the web with mixed cutting and coagulation current using a standard 5 F sphincterotome.
