Dx test for Achalasia | initially barium swallow and most accurate is esophogeal manometer (no need for endoscopy unless to dx cancer)--see decreased peristalsis, and increased esophogeal sphincter tone |
Achalasia tx | initially pneumatic dilitation or surgery (dilitation usually done when surgery doesnt work); if patient refuses both use BOTOX |
