Summary

In this study, we will evaluate the incidence of reflux esophagitis between two different techniques of posterior per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) i.e. conventional POEM versus oblique/ sling fiber sparing POEM. This is a randomized trial where the patients with idiopathic achalasia will be randomized in two groups in 1:1 fashion into groups.

PROCEDURE

Per-oral endoscopic myotomy

Per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is an endoscopic modality for the management of achalasia cardia. In this study, we will evaluate the impact of two different techniques of posterior POEM on the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Posterior POEM will be performed using the standard technique. The myotomy beyond the GEJ will be different in the two groups. In one group, the sling fibers will not be spared from dissection and in the second group, the sling fibers will be selectively spared from myotomy.
