This is a supplemental/follow-up report for mdr 3008780134-2017-00005 based on additional information provided by the physician.Stricture reported by the physician as definitely procedure-related, and possibly device-related.Stricture (narrowing of the esophagus) is a known potential adverse event in endoscopic ablation therapy, and may occur regardless of whether or not there is a device malfunction.Patient symptoms resolved after standard therapeutic intervention (tts balloon dilation).Per request from fda on 26mar2020, supplemental report was submitted with incorrect report number.This report is being submitted to correct the report number from 3008780134-2017-00021 to 3008780134-2017-00005.
