German term

Bolusereignis

German to English Medical Medical (general)
This is a report on a patient with esophageal food impaction.

Obviously, I know what "Bolusereignis" is, but I was wondering whether there was a term similar to Bolusereignis (other than esophageal food impaction).

Has anyone encountered "bolus event" in sound medical English?

Thanks for your input.
Proposed translations (English)
3 (Food) bolus impactation

@ Lirka What about [oesophageal] food bolus impaction?
For example:
Most cases of oesophageal food bolus impactions (FB) are one-off events, but recurrence is recognised. The aims of this study are to establish the recurrence rate of food bolus impaction and to identify features associated with recurrence.

There seem to be quite a few other good hits.

"Bolus hold-up" is what I came up with. What do you think?

*correction to the spelling of "impactation"
Example sentence:

Food bolus impactions are acute events that, for the most part, are immediately recognized by the patient. Most food bolus impactions resolve without intervention, either by moving forward to the stomach or by the patient regurgitating the ingested conten
