What is an Esophageal Dilator Set?
An Esophageal Dilator Set is a medical device used to widen narrowed areas (strictures) in the esophagus. It typically includes a cylindrical dilator that slides over a guidewire or string for controlled placement. The set is essential for treating swallowing difficulties caused by benign or malignant strictures.
Evolution of Esophageal Dilation Devices
The use of esophageal dilators dates back to the early 19th century, when mechanical dilation was first introduced to relieve esophageal narrowing. Over time, materials and design have improved significantly, allowing for safer, more controlled dilation. Modern dilators are now radiopaque and highly flexible, enhancing accuracy and patient comfort. The introduction of guidewire-assisted systems has further advanced the reliability of esophageal dilation procedures.

Instructions for Use
- Choose the appropriate dilator size based on patient assessment

- Withdraw carefully after dilation is achieved
Key Devices Used with Esophageal Dilator in Endoscopic Procedures
During endoscopic esophageal dilation, several supporting instruments are used to ensure safety and precision. A guide wire is inserted first to help guide the dilator smoothly into the stricture area. A gastroscope (endoscope) is used before and after the procedure for visual confirmation and to check for any complications. Fluoroscopy with contrast agent helps in real-time positioning of the dilator, while a patient bite block protects the scope and prevents injury.
