This was this 24 year old's fifth follow up visit. We removed the stent placed in his last visit http://ercp365.blogspot.com/2014/09/fourth-follow-up-ercp-for-post.html. Contrast injection showed a persistent stricture (A: Black arrows). We used a 10mm stricture dilatation balloon of 3cm length to dilate the stricture (B & C: Black arrows show the inflated balloon and red arrow marks the "waist"of the balloon at the strictured segment in B). Marked improvement in the previously narrowed site of ductal anastomosis was noted (D: Black arrows).
