What to look for in an esophageal dilation surgery

To do esophageal dilatation surgery, you need to pay attention to the preoperative psychological state and postoperative clinical care. 1. Preoperative: Fasting for eight hours before the operation, explaining the condition of the patient before the operation, and informing the steps of the operation, so as to facilitate the cooperation of the patient. 2. Postoperative: postoperative bed rest, observation of vital signs, postoperative fasting for two hours, but also pay attention to observe whether there is esophageal perforation. If necessary, antibiotics or hormonal drugs can be given intravenously under the guidance of the doctor to reduce the local swelling reaction after dilatation. Esophageal dilatation surgery is a minimally invasive surgery, which is safe and less invasive. Patients need to accept the surgical treatment with a positive mindset, and should chew and swallow slowly when eating after the surgery, so as to avoid food impaction due to incomplete dilatation of the stricture.
