We have the top doctors for the treatment of Achalasia Cardia. This is the most common esophageal motility (movement) disorder (food pipe). The muscles at the lower end of the food pipe (called the lower oesophageal sphincter) fail to relax in this condition, and there is a loss of peristalsis (forward movement of ingested liquids or solids) of the food pipe. This causes progressive esophageal dilatation and impaired ingested food emptying. The primary cause of this is the destruction of some nerve cells in the esophageal muscle layer. Achalasia cardia is a potentially fatal condition. If not treated, it can lead to esophageal cancer, which is one of the most feared cancers we see in our practice. Patients with this condition typically have difficulty swallowing (at first for liquids), regurgitation, and weight loss. They may also exhibit heartburn, chest pain, and a dry cough. These symptoms are frequently associated with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and are treated. The correct diagnosis of this condition is critical because if misdiagnosed, it can lead to esophageal cancer in the future. Diagnosis is accomplished through the use of the patient's symptoms, a Barium swallow, endoscopy, and oesophageal manometry. The gold standard test for diagnosing this rare condition is esophageal manometry.
