Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for achalasia
Achalasia is an uncommon disorder that results from the degeneration of ganglion cells of the myenteric plexus in the lower esophageal wall. It is manifested by a loss of peristalsis in the lower part of the esophagus and failure of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) to relax.

In this review article, we summarized the current status of EFTR for SETs and discussed future clinical applications for epithelial neoplasms from oncological and technical perspectives. EFTR is clinically feasible for treating gastric SETs. Future investigations and technical innovations are required to expand the clinical indications for EFTR in ...

Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy: Establishing a New Program [PDF]
Achalasia is an esophageal motility disorder characterized by incomplete relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and aperistalsis of the esophageal body. Treatment of achalasia is aimed at decreasing the resting pressure in the LES.

Acute Respiratory Failure From Massive Esophageal Dilatation due to Achalasia
Massive esophageal dilatation secondary to achalasia resulting in acute hypoxic respiratory failure from cardiopulmonary mass effect. ABSTRACT Massive esophageal dilation from achalasia can cause acute respiratory failure via lung compression. Prompt recognition and urgent esophageal decompression can rapidly reverse hypoxia and be lifesaving.

Peroral endoscopic myotomy as a new approach in the treatment of patients with achalasia cardia
Background. Achalasia cardia is a disease characterized by an esophageal motility disorder in which the lower esophageal sphincter fails to fully relax in response to swallo-wing and esophageal motility progressively decreases.
