The Relationship between Upper Esophageal Sphincter Manometry Function and Esophageal Motility Disorders
Differences in UES measures exist among patients with failed swallows, with a positive correlation between UES dysfunction and increasing dysmotility. Our findings illustrate that UES measures are closely related to esophageal function, and that even minor esophageal dysfunction is related to UES dysfunction.
