Endoscopy showed a “ blind ” esophagus, with complete esophageal obstruction [Figure 1]. An endoscopic approach was unsuccessful in finding an access for the guidewire, and no evidence of contrast medium passage was seen. EUS was used to study the esophageal layers and try to see behind the stricture. The wall was thickened (10 mm), with prevalence of the submucosa. A mild insufflation of air, used as ultrasonographic contrast, allowed the endosonographer to see a hyperechoic line that was interpreted as the submillimetric remnant of the esophageal lumen [Figure 2]. A 19-gauge access needle was used to puncture, under EUS guidance, the esophageal wall [Figure 3] starting from the hyperechoic line inside the esophagus. After initial resistance, under fluoroscopic view of the needle path, a point of least resistance was felt, and the needle tip, inserted for almost 5 cm, was visualized below the diaphragm. A guidewire was inserted into the needle and under fluoroscopic view was seen creating a loop inside the stomach [Figure 4]. A Hurricane RX biliary balloon dilation catheter (6-mm diameter, 4-cm length), (Boston Scientific Corp., Natick, MA) was passed through the stricture, and the first dilation was performed [Figure 5].
