Can high-frequency mini-probe endoscopic ultrasonography predict outcome of endoscopic dilation in patients with benign esophageal strictures?

Background and study aims Endoscopic dilation is first-line management for benign esophageal strictures (ES). Depth of involvement of the esophageal wall on endosonography using high frequency mini-probe (EUS-M) may predict response to dilation. This study evaluated EUS-M characteristics to predict...
