Abstract

Congenital esophageal stenosis is a rare developmental anomaly. It occurs with a frequency of about 1 case per 20-50 thousand newborns and accounts for about 3-5% of the total number of congenital malformations. In the initial diagnosis, it is difficult to differentiate it from other stenoses caused by inflammatory changes in the mucous membrane of the esophagus, the final diagnosis becomes clear only after treatment and dilation.

Treatment of congenital esophageal stenosis can be carried out in various ways. Endoscopic dilation is an effective and safe method of treatment, while surgical intervention is intended only for stenoses that do not respond to dilation.
