Laparoscopic Heller Myotomy and Dor Fundoplication
World Journal of Surgery, 2022AbstractIntroductionAchalasia is an esophageal motility disorder characterized by disordered esophageal peristalsis with failed relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter resulting in a functional obstruction.Treatment can include medical, endoscopic, or surgical interventions.

Laparoscopic Heller Myotomy and Toupet Fundoplication
World Journal of Surgery, 2022AbstractEsophageal achalasia is a primary motility disorder of unknown origin. The goal of treatment is to eliminate the resistance caused by a non‐relaxing lower esophageal sphincter, therefore allowing passage of food and liquid from the esophagus into the stomach.

Overall Complications Following Robotic Heller Myotomy Are Lower Compared With Laparoscopy
Surgical laparoscopy, endoscopy & percutaneous techniques, 2022Background: The use of robotics in foregut surgery has become more prevalent in the United States over the last 10 years. We sought to find the differences in the clinical outcomes of robotic surgery compared with traditional laparoscopy in patients ...

Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 2003
MIS continues to evolve with the introduction of new techniques and technology. This report discusses the use of "needlescopic" technology in the surgical management of achalasia. Heller myotomy procedures performed between January 1, 1997, and July 1, 2000, were analyzed and the results of 14 needlescopic procedures were compared with 15 laparoscopic ...

Different surgical techniques for the treatment of achalasia exist, including laparoscopic Heller myotomy. Laproscopic Heller myotomy is the most common approach; it has better short-term outcomes and similar long-term outcomes when compared to open myotomies.

Achalasia is a rare esophageal dysmotility disorder of unknown etiology that affects approximately 1 in 100,000 people. It is characterized by haphazard contractility or absent peristalsis of the esophagus and uncoordinated relaxation of a hypertensive lower esophageal sphincter (LES) mechanism.
