Abstract
Congenital anomalies that can produce esophageal stenosis as well as acquired diseases of the esophagus in children are described. The infant and child who refuse to accept solid foods must be submitted to roentgenologic and endoscopic examination. Dysphagia is sometimes difficult to recognize in infants and children. Endoscopic treatment alone or associated with surgery is successful in many cases if well indicated and precisely done.
