Esophagogastric Junction Outflow Obstruction (EGJOO): A Manometric Phenomenon or Clinically Impactful Problem.
[PURPOSE OF REVIEW] Esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction (EGJOO), defined manometrically by impaired esophagogastric junction relaxation (EGJ) with preserved peristalsis, can be artifactual, due to secondary etiologies (mechanical, …

Development of quality indicators for the diagnosis and management of achalasia.
[BACKGROUND] The management of achalasia has improved due to diagnostic and therapeutic innovations. However, variability in care delivery remains and no established measures defining quality of care for this population exist. We aimed to u…

ASGE guideline on the management of achalasia.
Achalasia is a primary esophageal motor disorder of unknown etiology characterized by degeneration of the myenteric plexus, which results in impaired relaxation of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ), along with the loss of organized perista…

Response to multiple rapid swallows shows impaired inhibitory pathways in distal esophageal spasm patients with and without concomitant esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction.
Distal esophageal spasm (DES) is a motility disorder characterized by premature contraction of the esophageal body during single swallows. It is thought to be due to impairment of esophageal inhibitory pathways, but studies to support this …

The 2018 ISDE achalasia guidelines.
Achalasia is a relatively rare primary motor esophageal disorder, characterized by absence of relaxations of the lower esophageal sphincter and of peristalsis along the esophageal body. As a result, patients typically present with dysphagia…

The clinical significance of hypercontractile peristalsis: comparison of high-resolution manometric features, demographics, symptom presentation, and response to therapy in patients with Jackhammer esophagus versus Nutcracker esophagus.
The Chicago Classification version 3.0 (CC v 3.0) defines hypercontractile peristalsis as Jackhammer esophagus (JE); Nutcracker esophagus (NE) is no longer recognized. Data regarding patient characteristics and treatment response for JE ver…
