Abstract
In this work, we present the case of an elderly patient, who consulted for dysphagia mainly to solids, of early appearance. The anamnesis, in the context of an esophageal dysphagia, motivated the speed of the approach, in order to rule out a malignant disease. A barium study was requested that reports a probable diagnosis of achalasia. We highlight the value of the anamnesis in the course of the pathologies diagnosed in Primary Care, despite of limitation of complementary tests.
