| Sumario: | The therapeutic options for treatment of Achalasia of the esophagus include medical treatment, endoscopic and surgical procedures.

The definitive results seem to be better after surgical treatment compared to medical management or endoscopic procedures (Rev Méd Chile 2002; 130. 1055-66). |
