Incidence rates were calculated using 2016 Federal census data. Clinical, endoscopic, and histologic data were gathered from diagnosis until the end of the follow\u2010up period (fall 2019).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The incidence of EoE in patients less than 15 years old was 5.4 per 100,000 person\u2010years. Of the 332 new diagnoses, 40 (12.0%) had endoscopically identified esophageal narrowing at diagnosis or during the follow\u2010up period, with a subset of 11 (27.5% of narrowed cohort) patients undergoing mechanical esophageal dilation. The median age at diagnosis and median duration of symptoms were higher in the cohort with narrowing than those without. Patient\u2010reported food bolus impaction and dysphagia were associated with esophageal narrowing. Trachealization was the endoscopic finding most commonly associated with esophageal narrowing. Of the 65 esophagogastroduodenoscopies performed in the follow\u2010up of a known esophageal narrowing, 4 of the 31 (13%) had resolution of this finding post mechanical dilation, and 19 of the 39 (49%) had resolution of the narrowing after initiation of new medical or dietary treatments (without dilation).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>EoE is common in Canadian children, with esophageal narrowing being present within a few years of diagnosis in 12% of cases.
