The incidence of CIP ranges from 3% to 10% in adults, and its endoscopic appearance is characterized by a flat or slightly raised salmon-colored patch. In this case, we report a 78-year-old man who presented with symptoms of laryngopharyngeal reflux and dysphagia. An esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a flat area of salmon-colored patch between 17 and 20 cm from the incisors, suggestive of a CIP complicated by stricture. The biopsy results showed an oxyntic-type mucosa lined with columnar cells consistent with an inlet patch. Esophageal dilation was done with a savory dilator with no resistance at 18 mm. The patient was placed on maintenance acid suppression therapy with proton-pump inhibitors and reported complete resolution of symptoms at the 1-month follow-up.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/23247096231201024","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,16]],"date-time":"2023-10-16T01:59:07Z","timestamp":1697421547000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Esophageal Stricture: An Uncommon Complication of Cervical Inlet Patch"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-9561-2096","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Akash","family":"Patel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Eisenhower Health, Rancho Mirage, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adewale B.","family":"Ajumobi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Eisenhower Health, Rancho Mirage, CA, USA"},{"name":"University of California Riverside, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-2007-1004294"},{"key":"bibr2-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.59566\/IJBS.2014.10129"},{"key":"bibr3-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.32.9.968"},{"key":"bibr4-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00042737-200012070-00005"},{"key":"bibr5-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/bf01537228"},{"key":"bibr6-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.gie.2010.05.008"},{"key":"bibr7-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1746.2004.03474.x"},{"key":"bibr8-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/mcg.0000000000001516"},{"key":"bibr9-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.smj.0000231246.28273.b0"},{"key":"bibr10-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-2007-1005690"},{"key":"bibr11-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1572-0241.1999.01458.x"},{"key":"bibr12-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00007611-199705000-00021"},{"key":"bibr13-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0016-5085(88)90448-9"},{"key":"bibr14-23247096231201024","first-page":"150152","volume":"90","author":"Sperling RM","year":"1995","journal-title":"Am J Gastroenterol"},{"key":"bibr15-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mge.2001.114782"},{"key":"bibr16-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v16.i1.42"},{"key":"bibr17-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1572-0241.2003.07488.x"},{"key":"bibr18-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.dld.2014.05.001"},{"key":"bibr19-23247096231201024","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.gastro.2009.04.053"}],"container-title":["Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/23247096231201024","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/23247096231201024","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/23247096231201024","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,29]],"date-time":"2026-04-29T08:03:42Z","timestamp":1777449822000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/23247096231201024"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2023,1]]},"references-count":19,"alternative-id":["10.1177\/23247096231201024"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/23247096231201024","relation":{},"ISSN":["2324-7096","2324-7096"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2324-7096","type":"print"},{"value":"2324-7096","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2023,1]]},"article-number":"23247096231201024"}}
