Summary
This study tests if a shorter version of a procedure called POEM works as well as the standard longer version for people with trouble swallowing due to achalasia. About 372 adults will take part, and researchers will compare symptom relief and side effects over two years. The goal is to see if a smaller muscle cut can provide the same benefit with fewer risks.
