Pneumatic dilatation in achalasia.

Pneumatic dilatation of achalasia cardia was performed on 22 patients using Rider-Moeller bag under fluoroscopic control-during a three year period. The diagnosis was established at barium study and endoscopy. A total of 28 dilatations were performed on 22 patients. Sixteen patients required a single dilatation, five required another sitting while one patient had to be dilated thrice. Surgery was not required in any patient. There was a single complication in the form of an intramural leak which could be successfully managed conservatively. Our short term follow up results reiterate the consensus that pneumatic dilatation should be the initial form of management in these cases.

Small bowel tuberculosis: enteroclysis findings.

We describe the radiologic appearances of small bowel tuberculosis as shown by enteroclysis. A total of 265 patients with proven small bowel tuberculosis seen over a period of more than one decade was evaluated. All patients had positive radiologic findings as shown on enteroclysis examination. Of the 265 patients with small bowel tuberculosis, 174 had isolated small bowel involvement with a normal ileocecal region, whereas 91 had associated noncontiguous involvement of the ileocecal region. The most common radiologic finding was the presence of strictures, noted in 62.7% of cases. Most strictures were short, concentric, and smooth in outline. These strictures were solitary or multiple and located mainly in the jejunum. Other radiologic findings were adhesions (21.8%), ulcerations (9.1%), and diffuse thickening of folds (6.4%). Complications noted were in the form of enteroliths, perforations, and fistulae. The radiographic findings of small bowel tuberculosis, although non-specific, may indicate tuberculosis in a high-risk population.
