Primary Esophageal Motility Disorders: Beyond Achalasia [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017
The best-defined primary esophageal motor disorder is achalasia. However, symptoms such as dysphagia, regurgitation and chest pain can be caused by other esophageal motility disorders.

Peroral esophageal myotomy for esophageal motility disorders

Minerva Gastroenterology, 2023
The concept of third space endoscopy first described in 2007, was adapted and performed in humans in 2010 by Inoue et al. in a group of patients with esophageal achalasia (EA). Since then, esophageal endoscopic myotomy (E-POEM), has been performed in more than 10,000 patients worldwide up to now.

Esophageal Motility Disorders

American family physician, 2021
Since the first surgical techniques for esophageal motility disorders were described in the early twentieth century, the Atlas of knowledge in regarding its varied pathology has grown immensely. Workup is multimodal using a variety of functional imaging and physiologic tools. Medical management, while typically first line, is mostly ineffective.

Esophageal Motility Disorders

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2008
Symptoms of chest pain and dysphagia are common in the adult population. Most patients initially undergo an evaluation to exclude anatomic causes (ie, esophagitis, stricture) and cardiovascular disease as the etiology of these symptoms. Patients with persistent symptoms may then be referred for specialized testing of the esophagus, including esophageal

Esophageal motility disorders

Disease-a-Month, 1988
Esophageal motility disorders consist of a complex array of disturbances in normal esophageal function associated with dysphagia, gastroesophageal reflux, and noncardiac chest pain. A thorough knowledge of normal esophageal anatomy and physiology is important to a full understanding of these motility derangements.
