Background: Bouginage and pneumatic dilation are the first treatments for benign esophageal stenosis or stricture. Aim of the study was to develop the simpler method to treat the benign distal esophageal stenosis. Methods: Five benign distal esophageal stenosis cases were included in the study. A standard videogastroscope was inserted into the gastric antrum of the patient and then the gastroscope tip was deflected 210° and rotated it until the gastroscope tip adhered to the gastric minor curvature in the mid of the corpus above the angular incisure. While retained that position, the gastroscope was withdrew slowly until the endoscopist felt the resistant of the minor curvature gastric wall and the scope could not be withdrew anymore, however the withdrawal process was continued for a few more milimeters and kept that position for a few seconds. This maneuver dilated the distal esophageal stenosis. Results: All benign distal esophageal stenosis patients (case 1: female, 49 years old; case 2: male, 75 years old; case 3: female, 72 years old; case 4: female, 32 years old; case 5: male 55 years old) were successfully dilated. Three patients (case 1, 2, and 3) have been 7 months after first dilation without further deglutition problem. Case 4 was relapsed after 6 months and redilated successfully. Case 5 has been 4 months observation period after first dilation and without any deglutition problem. Conclusion: J-maneuver withdrawal method during gastroscopy looked promising method to dilate benign distal esophageal stenosis, which can be performed by basic endoscopists. Further studies are needed to determine to what extent this method can treat distal esophageal stenosis.
