Botulinum toxin injection of the lower esophageal sphincter to identify achalasia-variant esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction.
Esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction (EGJOO) can be an achalasia variant caused by neuromuscular dysfunction of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), or the manometric manifestation of mechanical processes that impair EGJ distensibi…

Spastic secondary contractile patterns identified by FLIP panometry in symptomatic patients with unremarkable high-resolution manometry.
[BACKGROUND] Functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) panometry can show spastic secondary contractile patterns of unclear significance in symptomatic patients who have no esophageal obstructive disorders, and no motility disorders on high-res…

Multidisciplinary Approach to Esophageal Achalasia: A Single Center Experience.
[BACKGROUND] The treatment of achalasia is palliative. Pneumatic dilatation (PD) or laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM) just eliminates the outflow obstruction allowing easier emptying of the esophagus. The aim of this study was to evaluate t…
