No-Scar surgery for swallowing disorder under the microscope
NCT ID NCT02770859
Summary
This study is collecting long-term information on a procedure called POEM, which treats achalasia, a condition that makes swallowing difficult. The procedure is done through the mouth without external cuts, aiming to relax a tight muscle in the esophagus. Researchers are tracking how well it works and how patients fare over time by enrolling up to 5,000 adults with achalasia.
