Abstract:
:A series of 51 patients with achalasia of the oesophagus treated by pneumatic dilatation between 1980 and 1988 is reported. Treatment was assessed as effective (no or minimal dysphagia) in 78% of patients, followed for a mean of 30 months. Thirty-four patients required only one dilatation and only two patients had more than 3 dilatations. There were no deaths, but perforation occurred in seven patients, four of whom required early surgical repair. A further five patients were referred for elective surgery. Factors possibly contributing to oesophageal perforation are discussed.
