[Per-oral endoscopic myotomy in achalasia].
The treatment of patients with achalasia is complex due to a considerably high recurrence rate and risk of treatment-related complications. The per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a new endoscopic technique that combines the benefits of a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure with the efficacy of a surgical myotomy. Implementation of the POEM technique may lead to fewer complications, a low...
متن کاملPer Oral Endoscopic Myotomy in Children with Achalasia Cardia
Background/Aims Achalasia cardia (AC) is a motility disorder, characterized by impaired lower esophageal sphincter relaxation and absence of esophageal peristalsis. AC is rare in children with unclear optimum management strategies. Per oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a novel technique for management of achalasia with encouraging results in adult patients. The efficacy and safety of POEM is no...
متن کاملThe last innovation in achalasia treatment; per-oral endoscopic myotomy.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a minimally invasive endoscopic treatment option for patients with achalasia and has been performed since 2010. It is less invasive than Heller myotomy and its use is spreading rapidly worldwide. We present our results of POEM that, to the best of our knowledge, are the first cases in Turkey. MATERIALS AND METHODS We enrolled patients betw...
متن کاملPer-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for esophageal achalasia.
Per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a new minimally invasive endoscopic treatment for achalasia. Since the first modern human cases were published in 2008, around 2,000 cases have been performed worldwide. This technique requires advanced endoscopic skills and a learning curve of at least 20 cases. POEM is highly successful with over 90 % improvement in dysphagia while offering patients the a...
متن کاملThe Choice of Myotomy in Achalasia Cardia: Heller's or Per-Oral Endoscopic Myotomy
Achalasia cardia (AC) is a neurodegenerative disease which leads to loss of inhibitory myenteric neurons. This implies that, with the currently available treatment options, we offer palliation but not cure to these patients. Pneumatic balloon dilatation (PBD) has been the only time‐tested endoscopic modality for the management of AC until recently. However, the requirement of repeated dilatatio...
