Esophageal motor dysfunction may underlie impaired bolus/refluxate clearance in laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). However, the prevalence of esophageal dysmotility and its correlation with reflux parameters and symptoms in LPR is not well established.

Esophageal motility disorder achalasia
Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head and Neck Surgery, 2013Although not a common disease, the last several years have had exciting breakthroughs in better defining the pathophysiology of achalasia, classifying the disease with high-resolution manometry and potentially exciting new treatments.The introduction of high-resolution manometry with detailed assessment of lower esophageal sphincter function and ...

The Management of Esophageal Motility Disorders
Hospital Practice, 1988Until now, management has remained heavily dependent on physical measures to stretch smooth muscle by dilation or surgical myotomy. Pharmacologic treatment has played a secondary but significant role—one that may well be enhanced by renewed interest in the anticholinergics and the utilization of the calcium channel blockers.

The Spectrum of Esophageal Motility Disorders
Hospital Practice, 1987When a patient presents with chest pain, the first order of business is likely to be differentiation of cardiac from noncardiac etiology. Recently, there has been increasing attention focused on disorders of esophageal motility. At least 10 discrete entities have now been identified.

Diagnosis of esophageal motility disorders
Postgraduate Medicine, 1990Esophageal motility disorders are now known to be a heterogeneous group of conditions that commonly cause dysphagia and chest pain. Motor dysphagia is usually provoked by solids and liquids (in contrast to mechanical dysphagia, which is usually provoked by solids only). Chest pain with these disorders is nonspecific and can mimic angina pectoris.

Oesophageal motility disorders
The Lancet, 1990Oesophageal motility disorders comprise various abnormal manometric patterns which usually present with dysphagia or chest pain. Some, such as achalasia, are diseases with a well defined pathology, characteristic manometric features, and good response to treatments directed at the pathophysiological abnormalities.
