Contractility patterns on functional lumen imaging probe prior to peroral endoscopic myotomy predict outcomes in achalasia

Functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) assessment of esophagogastric junction (EGJ) opening confirms suspected achalasia. However, the importance of the contractile response (CR) in the esophageal body to volumetric distension in established achalasia is unclear. This study evaluated the value of CR on FLIP before peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) to predict post-POEM esophageal emptying on timed barium esophagram (TBE).
