title: [Surgical treatment of peptic stenosis of the esophagus].
abstract: 36 patients with peptic strictures were operated between 1981 and 1987. 40 operations performed because 4 recurrences after a first intervention obliged to a re-operation. The conservative procedure was used in 29 cases (72.5%). A resection had to be done in 11 cases (27.5%), with 3 re-operations after a first conservative treatment. 1 patient died in hospital. The follow up concerns all patient after a minimum of 2 years. 31 patients (88%) remained symptom free, but 4 patients required further surgery. No mortality and a low morbidity with conservative surgical method were observed. The rate of success was 76% with 24% of recurrence. For us, the best conservative method is total fundoplicatio if possible (sometimes on a gastric cone in case of reflux stricture with shortening of the esophagus). The duodenal diversion is recommended if approach of hiatus is too difficult (re-operation) and in case of alkaline reflux.
