A comparative study on comprehensive, objective outcomes of laparoscopic Heller myotomy with per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for achalasia.
OBJECTIVE To compare symptomatic and objective outcomes between HM and POEM. BACKGROUND The surgical gold standard for achalasia is laparoscopic Heller myotomy (HM) and partial fundoplication. Per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a less invasive flexible endoscopic alternative. We compare their safety and efficacy. METHODS Data on consecutive HMs and POEMs for achalasia from 2007 to 2012 w...

However, about 10% of treated patients refer persistent or recurrent dysphagia. Many Authors showed that this failure rate is related to inadequate my...

متن کاملPeroral Endoscopic Myotomy Achieves Similar Clinical Response but Incurs Lesser Charges Compared to Robotic Heller Myotomy
BACKGROUND/AIM Several uncontrolled studies comparing peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) and Heller myotomy have demonstrated equivalent short-term efficacy and safety. However, no data exists rergarding the cost of POEM and how it compares to that of robotic Heller myotomy (RHM). The primary aim of this study was to compare the inpatient charges incurred in patients who underwent POEM or RHM fo...
