Clinical Characteristics and Novel Manometric Features of Pseudoachalasia: Identification of Loss of Respiratory Variation in Lower Esophageal Sphincter Pressure

open access: yesJGH Open
Background Pseudoachalasia closely mimics idiopathic achalasia in both symptoms and high‐resolution manometry (HRM) findings, making accurate diagnosis difficult.

Type II achalasia unmasked by EndoFLIP and high-resolution manometry in a child with eosinophilic esophagitis. [PDF]

open access: yesJPGN Rep
ABSTRACT Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic immune‐mediated disease characterized by esophageal dysfunction and eosinophilic inflammation. Persistent dysphagia despite histologic remission should prompt evaluation for alternative etiologies. A 10‐year‐old male with asthma and eczema presented with progressive solid food dysphagia, daily non ...

Intestinal Metaplasia of the Distal Esophagus in a Patient With Untreated Achalasia-An Unusual Case and Review of Literature. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Barrett's esophagus (BE) and achalasia are distinct esophageal disorders with opposing pathophysiologic mechanisms, making their coexistence exceedingly rare. We describe a 51‐year‐old woman who presented with progressive dysphagia, postprandial vomiting, and significant weight loss over 8 months.

Evaluating esophageal motility beyond primary peristalsis: Assessing esophagogastric junction opening mechanics and secondary peristalsis in patients with normal manometry

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology and Motility, 2021
Functional luminal imaging probe (FLIP) Panometry assesses the esophageal response to distention and may complement the assessment of primary peristalsis on high‐resolution manometry (HRM).

Validation of secondary peristalsis classification using FLIP Panometry in 741 subjects undergoing manometry

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology and Motility, 2021
This study aimed to systematically evaluate a classification scheme of secondary peristalsis using functional luminal imaging probe (FLIP) panometry through comparison with primary peristalsis on high‐resolution manometry (HRM).

High Anal Canal Pressure and Rectal Washouts Contribute to the Decrease of Anal Basal Pressure After Botulinum Toxin Injections in Paediatric Patients With Chronic Constipation

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
IntroductionChronic constipation can be treated by injecting botulinum toxin into the anal sphincter to decrease anal basal pressure. To assess the effect of botulinum toxin, we investigated the factors that contribute to changes in anal basal pressure ...

Concise Review: Applicability of High-resolution Manometry in Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

open access: yesJournal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility, 2022
Manometry, particularly high-resolution manometry is the preferred diagnostic tool used to evaluate esophageal motor function. This investigation is strongly indicated in the setting of dysphagia, but is also useful in gastroesophageal reflux disease ...
