phenytoin and Esophageal Stenosis

phenytoin has been researched along with Esophageal Stenosis in 6 studies

Esophageal Stenosis: A stricture of the ESOPHAGUS. Most are acquired but can be congenital.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Our therapy consists of a combination of the following principles: (a) inhibition of collagenase formation by oral phenytoin to reduce epithelial detachment; (b) pureed or semiliquid food because minor trauma by hard food particles may induce blistering and result in scarring of the upper esophagus, and larger food particles may obstruct an esophageal stricture; (c) avoidance of tangential shearing forces induced by bougienage and endoscopy and instead use of inflatable dilatator balloons which produce vertical pressure that seems to be less harmful; and (d) long-term nasogastric tube feeding, which may relieve even tight strictures."3.67Management of esophageal stenosis in recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. ( Anton-Lamprecht, I; Baldauf, G; Feurle, GE; Schulte-Braucks, T; Weidauer, H, 1984)
"A retrospective study of 55 patients with a benign esophageal stricture showed that in 11 patients (20%) the cause was a drug-induced lesion due to potassium chloride (3), tetracyclines (3), aspirin (2), vitamin C (1), phenytoin (1), and quinidine (1)."3.67Drug-induced esophageal strictures. ( Albertucci, M; Bailey, RT; Bonavina, L; DeMeester, TR; McChesney, L; Schwizer, W, 1987)
"If oesophageal strictures were present, endoscopy and bouginage with corticosteroid prophylaxis during the quiescent phase of the disease was a safe and useful procedure."1.28Management of oesophageal stenosis in epidermolysis bullosa dystrophica. ( Eisenberg, M; Kern, IB; Willis, S, 1989)
"Phenytoin has been shown to reduce the excessive production of collagenase and thereby to diminish blistering of skin and mucous membranes and stricture formation of the oesophagus."1.27[Therapy of esophageal stenoses in recessive epidermolysis bullosa dystrophica]. ( Anton-Lamprecht, I; Baldauf, G; Feurle, GE; Weidauer, H, 1985)
