摘要
Achalasia of the oesophagus is an uncommon neuromuscular disorder characterized by symptoms of dysphagia and regurgitation of undigested food. The results of treatment of 43 patients with achalasia over 10 years are presented. Clinical data on presenting complaints and duration, and all subsequent treatments, were recorded. Patients were contacted to assess their current symptomatic status.
