Strictures of the esophagus due to caustic substances occur with the ingestion of solid or liquid corrosive materials. Materials and Methods: A prospective randomized study was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of conventional therapy alone and conventional therapy + N-acetyl cysteine. Fifty patients with grade 2b and grade 3 burnt were analyzed. Intensive n-acetyl cysteine therapy can reduce the incidence of stricture development in patients with advanced grade corrosive esophagitis. Results: N-acetyl cysteine group+ Konvansitonel used in 1 patient, stenosis developed in 7 patients in the group with conventional treatment. Conclusion: We believe that our findings will be better supported with the groups including larger number of patients or with the experimental studies.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessEsophagitis corrosiveN-acetyl cysteinestrictureArticle102737510.5152/jaem.2011.016WOS:000420149000006N/A
