BACKGROUND: Achalasia is a primary esophageal motility disorder, which shows impaired relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and the absence of peristalsis, leading to dysphagia, weight loss, and chest pain. In recent years, peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) has become a popular method for treating achalasia. However, the effectiveness and safety of full-thickness myotomy (FTM) versus circular muscle myotomy (CMM) in POEM require further investigation.
METHODS: This retrospective single-center analysis studied 152 patients who underwent POEM surgery at the General Hospital of the Western Theater Command from May 2014 to May 2023. Patients were divided into two groups based on the depth of myotomy: the FTM group and the CMM group. Parameters such as surgical success rate, procedure time, and myotomy length were evaluated, and treatment efficacy was assessed based on the Eckardt score. Postoperative complications and efficacy were also monitored.
RESULTS: Technical success was achieved in both groups, with shorter procedure times in the FTM group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in postoperative Eckardt scores and symptom improvement between the FTM and CMM groups. The incidence of adverse events was similar in both groups. The incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) seemed to be higher in the FTM group, although this difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.051).
CONCLUSION: For patients with achalasia, there were no significant differences in short-to-medium-term treatment efficacy and safety between FTM and CMM in POEM. Although FTM significantly reduced procedure time, it may lead to a higher incidence of GERD. More cases are needed in the future to explore the more appropriate myotomy for different achalasia subtypes.
