Characterization of esophageal motility following esophageal atresia repair using high-resolution esophageal manometry.
BACKGROUND Esophageal dysmotility, a considerable issue following esophageal atresia (EA) repair, has been reported but has not been precisely described and characterized. Using high-resolution esophageal manometry (HREM), we characterized the esophageal motility patterns in children with repaired EA and compared these patterns of dysmotility with symptomatology. METHODS HREM was performed as...
متن کاملCongenital Esophageal Stenosis Associated with Esophageal Atresia and Gasless Abdomen
SUMMARY A radiologically gasless abdomen in a neonate with EA is usually regarded as being pathognomonic of an absence of distal T.E.F. It has been estimated that up to 1.5% of patient with a distal fistula may have a radiologically gasless abdomens as a manifestation of a very small fistula plugged with mucus. In this case a contrast study via the gastrostomy demonstrated a fistula between th...
متن کاملEvaluation of Esophageal Motor Function With High-resolution Manometry
For several decades esophageal manometry has been the test of choice to evaluate disorders of esophageal motor function. The recent introduction of high-resolution manometry for the study of esophageal motor function simplified performance of esophageal manometry, and revealed previously unidentified patterns of normal and abnormal esophageal motor function. Presentation of pressure data as col...
متن کاملEpiphrenic and middle esophageal diverticula: A rare cause of esophageal dysphagia. Esophageal high resolution manometry findings.
Esophageal diverticula (ED) constitute a rare pathology, with a prevalence ranging between 0.06% and 4% (1,2). According to its anatomical location it is classified as pharyngo-esophageal, middle esophageal and epiphrenics ED (3). The pathophysiologic mechanism differs in diverticula caused by traction, due to an inflammatory process involving the esophagus, or pulsion, associated with a concom...
متن کاملHow to Effectively Use High-Resolution Esophageal Manometry.
Esophageal manometry is the definitive test to evaluate esophageal motility and is indicated in the diagnostic evaluation of patients with nonobstructive dysphagia. Esophageal manometry is also indicated in the preoperative evaluation of patients obtaining a high-quality HRM study. Decisions toward or away from foregut surgery (Heller myotomy, Nissen fundoplication), which can be associated wit...
