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

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