ABSTRACT
Öztan MO, Güngör-Takes G, Çagan-Appak Y, Yildiz C, Karakoyun M, Baran M. Management of NSAID-related pyloric obstruction in a child using endoscopic balloon dilatation A case report. Turk J Pediatr 2018; 60 765-768. A gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) is a major complication of peptic ulcers (PUs) and corrosive ingestion in children; however, the optimal management of a patient with a GOO after a PU remains controversial. Although surgical correction is the most common treatment option, endoscopic balloon dilatation and simultaneous dilatation with a steroid injection are used more frequently as first-line treatments for PU-related GOOs. These patients require operative interventions when the obstruction cannot be managed using endoscopic approaches or in cases of relapsing after the procedure. Here, we present a case to create awareness that endoscopic balloon dilatation is a simple, effective, and safe therapy for a PU-related GOO.
