I would be interested in the answer to that as well. My husband had his esophagus removed March 8, 2022. He has a stricture and scar tissue at his throat that has been stretched twice. Unfortunately the tissue is raw and bleeding so it’s been difficult to stretch it. Now he’s on all liquids to help that heal. I’m not a medical person but I think that if you were to remove the scar tissue by doing a surgery would just create more scar tissue. I don’t know it’s some thing I’m going to ask his doctor. Over the last two weeks he has been hospitalized twice because he cannot swallow anything he needed fluids and then of course and endoscopy. We told them yesterday that we can’t keep coming back to the hospital and staying 48 hours and have these procedures each week. We’re looking for a long-term solution.
