“…Seven case series have reported no haemorrhages following ileal or colonic dilation. [161][162][163][164][165][166] Two further case series did however report haemorrhage associated with dilation of ileal or colonic strictures in 1/20 (5%) 167 and 1/38 (2.6%) patients. 168 One study included dilation of malignant strictures and encountered no haemorrhagic complication in 94 cases (68 malignant and 26 anastomotic strictures).…”

“…Araujo et al reported the success rate in the disease series as 97% after balloon dilatation [12]. Again, Placer et al, in a study of 26 patients developing anastomosis after anterior resection, reported the balloon dilatation success rate as 88.5% [7].…”

“…Brower and Freeman first described balloon catheter dilation of a rectal stricture in an adult [22]. Ever since, a significant number of studies have been published, rendering balloon dilation the most commonly reported method in the literature [23][24][25][26][27]. Balloon catheters are generally preferred over bougies because they deliver the entire dilating force radially, thereby reducing shear stress.…”
