GI Dilation

During a gastrointestinal (GI) dilation procedure, a balloon may be used to open narrowed areas or strictures in the digestive tract, which are most frequently located in the esophagus, pyloric valve, small intestine, colon and rectum. Multiple dilations may be performed if the stricture has not been successfully opened.
