Functional restoration of the esophagus after peroral endoscopic myotomy for achalasia
PURPOSE Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a new efficacious treatment option for achalasia. We propose to define "esophageal remodeling" as the functional restoration of the esophagus that involves decreased lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure, recovery of esophageal body peristalsis, and reduction of luminal diameter. The aim of this study was to investigate "esophageal remodeling" af...
متن کاملCurrent Status of Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy
Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) has been established as an optional treatment for achalasia. POEM is an endoluminal procedure that involves dissection of esophageal muscle fibers followed by submucosal tunneling. Inoue first attempted to use POEM for the treatment of achalasia in humans. Expanded indications of POEM include classic indications such as type I, type II, type III achalasia, fail...
متن کاملMyotomy of Distal Esophagus Influences Proximal Esophageal Contraction and Upper Esophageal Sphincter Relaxation in Patients with Achalasia After Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy
BACKGROUND/AIMS The motility change after peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) in achalasia is currently focused on lower esophageal sphincter (LES). This study aims to investigate the correlation of motility response between distal and proximal esophagus after POEM. METHODS A total of 32 achalasia patients who received POEM and high-resolution manometry (HRM) were included for analysis. Eckardt...
متن کامل[Tension pneumothorax during peroral endoscopic myotomy for treatment of esophageal achalasia under general anesthesia].
More and more endoscopically gastrointestinal procedures require anesthesiologists to perform general anesthesia, such as "peroral endoscopic myotomy". Peroral endoscopic myotomy is a novel invasive treatment for the primary motility disorder of esophagus, called esophageal achalasia. Despite of its minimally invasive feature, there are still complications during the procedure which develop to ...
متن کاملRisk factors for gas-related complications of peroral endoscopic myotomy in achalasia.
BACKGROUND Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a novel endoscopic technique for the treatment of achalasia. However, there are POEM-associated complications, the most common of which being gas-related. The aim of the current study was to determine the occurrence of and risk factors for gas-related complications of POEM in patients with achalasia. METHODS Retrospective analyses were performed...
