Abstract
We describe here the clinical history of a 52-year old woman presenting with a severe long-standing esophageal dysphagia of more than 10 years, for both liquids and solids, with regurgitation, chest discomfort with pain and a 12 kg weight loss in the previous five years due to severe eating impairment. Apart from these symptoms, the patient’s clinical history was unremarkable. The patient was seen by our Gastroenterology specialists and subsequently referred to our Radiology Unit, where Barium Swallow was performed and the suspected diagnosis of Achalasia was confirmed.
