Understanding Achalasia Cardia
Symptoms of Achalasia Cardia
A sensation of food being stuck in the chest or throat.
The backward flow of undigested food and liquids from the esophagus
Discomfort or pain behind the breastbone, often mistaken for heart-related issues.
Unintentional weight loss due to difficulties in eating and swallowing.
Burning sensation in the chest or throat, commonly associated with acid reflux.
Our Achalasia Cardia Treatment Approach
- Diagnostic Evaluation
- Treatment Options
- Esophageal Manometry: Measures the rhythmic muscle contractions in your esophagus when you swallow.
- Barium Swallow X-ray: Visualizes the flow of barium through the esophagus, highlighting any blockages or abnormalities.
- Endoscopy: A flexible tube with a camera is inserted through the mouth to examine the esophagus and stomach.
Based on the diagnostic findings, we offer several treatment options tailored to your condition:
Pneumatic Dilation
A balloon is inserted and inflated in the LES to widen the esophagus. This non-surgical procedure helps to improve swallowing by allowing food to pass more easily into the stomach.
Heller Myotomy
This minimally invasive surgical procedure involves cutting the muscles at the lower end of the esophagus. It is often performed laparoscopically, resulting in smaller incisions, less pain, and quicker recovery times.
Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM)
POEM is an advanced endoscopic procedure that involves cutting the LES muscles through the mouth without external incisions. This technique offers similar benefits to laparoscopic surgery with even less invasiveness.
Botulinum Toxin Injection
Botox injections can temporarily paralyze the LES muscles, providing short-term relief for patients who are not candidates for surgery or dilation. This treatment is often used as a bridge to more permanent solutions.
