Modified POEM With Radial Extension for Achalasia: Short-Term Outcomes of a Prospective Single-Center Study
The novel dissection and radial myotomy technique demonstrated superior outcomes in reducing dysphagia symptoms and LES resistance compared with the standard approach. Tailoring ST and myotomy lengths based on the achalasia type and EGJ involvement may optimize outcomes without increasing the risk of GERD.
