Case description

After the esophagus being dilated, we performed a retroflexed maneuver in the esophagus seen the endoscope and the catheter of the balloon. Pneumatic dilatation is considered to be the first line therapy for achalasia, but long-term outcome studies are scarce and limited by their retrospective design.
