BACKGROUND: Most patients who were included in previous studies on achalasia had increased lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure. Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) has been confirmed to be effective at relieving the clinical symptoms of achalasia associated with increased LES pressure.
AIM: To identify the safety and efficacy of POEM for patients with normal LES integrated relaxation pressure (LES-IRP).
METHODS: The clinical data of patients who underwent POEM successfully in The First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 481 patients who underwent preoperative high-resolution manometry (HRM) at our hospital were ultimately included in this research. According to the HRM results, the patients were divided into two groups: 71 patients were included in the normal LES-IRP group (LES-IRP < 15 mmHg) and 410 patients were included in the increased LES-IRP group (LES-IRP ≥ 15 mmHg). Clinical characteristics, procedure-related parameters, adverse events, and outcomes were compared between the two groups to evaluate the safety and efficacy of POEM for patients with normal LES-IRP.
RESULTS: Among the 481 patients included in our study, 209 were males and 272 were females, with a mean age of 44.2 years. All patients underwent POEM without severe adverse events. The median pre-treatment Eckardt scores of the normal LES-IRP and increased LES-IRP groups were 7.0 and 7.0 (P = 0.132), respectively, decreasing to 1.0 and 1.0 post-treatment (P = 0.572). The clinical success rate of the normal LES-IRP group was 87.3% (62/71), and that of the increased LES-IRP group was 91.2% (374/410) (P = 0.298). Reflux symptoms were measured by the GerdQ questionnaire, and the percentages of patients with GerdQ scores ≥ 9 in the normal LES-IRP and increased LES-IRP groups were 8.5% and 10.7%, respectively (P = 0.711). After matching, the rates of clinical success and the rates of GerdQ score ≥ 9 were not significantly different between the two groups.
CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that POEM is safe and effective for achalasia and patients with normal LES-IRP. In addition, in patients with normal LES-IRP, compared with those with increased LES-IRP, POEM was not associated with a greater incidence of reflux symptoms.
