Analysis of Prevalence and Risk Factors Associated With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and Esophagitis After Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy

Analysis of Incidence and Risk Factors Associated With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and Esophagitis After Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy

Achalasia is an uncommon disorder that results from the degeneration of ganglion cells of the myenteric plexus in the lower esophageal wall. Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a minimally invasive procedure capable of overcoming limitations of achalasia treatments. This study aimed to: 1) identify the prevalence of reflux esophagitis and asymptomatic GERD in patients who underwent POEM, and 2) evaluate patient and intraprocedural variables associated with post-POEM GERD.
