Endoscopic Pseudo-dilation of Esophagogastric Junction During Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy: (With Video). [PDF]

DEN Open
ABSTRACT Background and Aim During peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for achalasia, endoscopic esophagogastric junction (EGJ) opening is generally considered a sign of successful myotomy. However, in clinical practice, the EGJ may appear to open immediately after submucosal tunneling, even before myotomy is performed.

Concurrent myotomy and tunneling after establishment of a half tunnel instead of myotomy after establishment of a full tunnel: a more efficient method of peroral endoscopic myotomy

Endoscopy International Open, 2016
Background and study aims: Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a time-consuming and challenging procedure. Traditionally, the myotomy is done after the submucosal tunnel has been completed.

Has the Introduction of Laparoscopic Heller Myotomy Altered the Treatment Paradigm of Achalasia?

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2005
Although surgical myotomy is well established as the most effective and durable treatment for achalasia, wide acceptance of this procedure as a first-line treatment has been hampered by perceived invasiveness and morbidity.

Assessment of the Physical Invasiveness of Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy during the Perioperative Period Based on Changes in Energy Metabolism

Metabolites, 2023
A novel treatment method for achalasia of the esophagus and related disorders is known as peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). This study aimed to calculate the resting energy expenditure (REE) and evaluated the degree of physical invasiveness based on ...

Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy for Esophageal Achalasia [PDF]

, 2013
Recent advances in endoscopic technology allow us to perform totally endoscopic myotomy for esophageal achalasia. A submucosal tunnel is first created at the anterior wall of the esophagus down to the gastric cardia.
