Abstract
-
Congenital esophageal stenosis is a extremely rare disease in childhood. We experienced one patient with a case of esophageal stenosis with esophageal solid food impaction. According to her history of dysphagia, cine esophagogram, pH-monitoring, and esophagoscopic findings, this esophageal stenosis was confirmed as congenital stenosis. We thus reported this case along with a relevant literature review.
