BACKGROUND & AIMS: The rapid response to topical corticosteroids makes it hard to
implicate fibrosis as the cause of dysphagia in patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) …

Abstract Background Because eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) causes dysphagia,
esophageal narrowing, and strictures, it could result in low body mass index (BMI), but there …

OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate the effect of medical and diet therapies on esophageal
distensibility assessed using the functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) and the association …

Background & Aims Chronic inflammation of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) results in
progressive, fibrostenotic remodeling of the esophageal wall. This study aimed to …

While strictures are common in eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), there are few data on
stricture distribution and characteristics. Our primary aim was to characterize strictures by …

Methods We reviewed 41 patients with esophageal eosinophilia who underwent endoscopic
ultrasonography and high-resolution manometry. They were divided into the aEE group (n …

Results: In total, 20% of patients showed a concentric esophageal stricture, and in 57%
simultaneous contraction rings were visible. Mucosal alterations consisted of granular …

Methods: All consecutive patients with a confirmed diagnosis of EoE from 1988 to 2013
treated at University of South Florida were included. Patients were grouped into …

Background Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and high-resolution manometry (HRM) can
be used in the evaluation of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) for frequent symptoms such as …

It is unknown if successful control of esophageal inflammation in eosinophilic esophagitis
(EoE) decreases the need for subsequent esophageal dilation. We aimed to determine …
