Adenocarcinoma in a gastric tube after esophagectomy for esophageal carcinoma.

abstract：:The management of achalasia remains controversial, with little consensus on the optimal patient treatment pathway. In our own esophageal unit, we offer pneumatic dilatation as the initial therapy in most patients as first-line therapy. In this study, we aimed to examine the safety and efficacy of our own approach to t...
