Esophageal Stricture Management
Plastic and metal stents along with balloon dilation videos can be viewed here for the management of strictures in the esophagus. The WallFlex family of stents seek to deliver luminal patency through combination of flexibility and control to support your goal of optimized patient care. The CRE™ Balloon is designed to facilitate visualization of strictures and produce three distinct diameters at three separate pressures during in vivo dilation.
