Overlapping Esophageal Disorders: A Population‐Based Comparative Study of Eosinophilic Esophagitis Patients Also Diagnosed With Achalasia
The concomitant diagnosis of achalasia occurs in a notable subset of EoE patients and tends to precede or coincide with EoE, suggesting that eosinophilic inflammation may be secondary in some cases. Awareness of this overlap may improve diagnostic elucidation in identifying the primary underlying process (eosinophilic infiltration or dysmotility) and diagnosis (EoE or achalasia).
