Circular myotomy for mid-oesophageal stricture.

In this paper we describe the use of circular myotomies to approximate the oesophageal ends resulting from resection of an oesophageal stricture due to ingestion of domestic bleach. This procedure has spared the child from major oesophageal surgery with its known morbidity. This is the second case described using this method from this institute.
