    Abstract

    Benign colorectal strictures can be a complication of intestinal surgery, with limited options for endoscopic intervention. In this report, we describe a case where a removable silicone stent was temporarily placed to successfully treat a benign post operative stricture in an infant with Hirschsprung's disease.
