Usefulness of Endoscopy for the Detection and Diagnosis of Primary Esophageal Motility Disorders and Diseases Relating to Abnormal Esophageal Motility [PDF]
Diagnostics, 2023 Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is performed to rule out organic diseases in the diagnosis of esophageal motility disorders (EMDs). Abnormal endoscopic findings can be observed during EGD, which indicate the presence of EMDs. Several endoscopic findings

Sex/Gender Differences in Esophageal Motility Disorders [PDF]
The Korean Journal of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal ResearchEsophageal motility disorders are relatively rare and are attributed to an imbalance between the excitatory and inhibitory nerves that innervate the esophagus. These disorders include achalasia, distal esophageal spasms, and jackhammer esophagus.

Advances in Management of Esophageal Motility Disorders [PDF]
Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2018 The widespread adoption of high-resolution manometry (HRM) has led to a restructuring in the classification of esophageal motility disorder classification summarized in the Chicago Classification, currently in version 3.0. It has become apparent that the cardinal feature of achalasia, impaired lower esophageal sphincter relaxation, can occur in several
