Functional‐Structural Correlates in Achalasia: The Relationship of Esophageal Pressurization and Anatomy
HRM subtypes and PEP on HRM correlated with esophageal morphology defined on esophagram. However, imperfect concordance between HRM and esophagram classifications suggests complementary value to assess achalasia disease stages related to disease chronicity and esophageal wall mechanics. Future investigations to facilitate combined assessment with HRM and esophagram may enhance achalasia phenotyping and treatment planning.
