title: Congenital esophageal stenosis in adults: clinical and radiographic findings in seven patients.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical and radiographic findings in seven adults with congenital esophageal stenosis.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In young or middle-aged individuals, particularly men with long-standing dysphagia, an upper or mid esophageal stricture with multiple ringlike constrictions is a characteristic appearance of congenital esophageal stenosis on double-contrast esophagography.
