Abstract
Achalasia cardia (AC) is one of the rarely seen disorders of esophagus motility which happens as a result of degeneration of neurons which is irreversible. Treatment is mainly of palliative nature, and no complete curative treatment is available as of now. The diagnostics and therapeutics in this direction has strengthened mainly due to high-resolution manometry and per-oral endoscopic myotomy, referred to as Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM).The characterization of type of achalasia cardia is made easier by high-resolution manometry as we have mentioned, which also has an important therapeutic role. Achalasia has to be managed for each patient individually, and the role of pneumatic balloon dilatation, POEM, or Heller’s myotomy needs to be reconsidered. In our case report and brief review, we discussed the main aspects of diagnosing an OPD-based patient and a brief review of achalasia cardia.
