Peroral endoscopic myotomy as salvation technique post-Heller: International experience
Heller myotomy (HM) has an excellent efficacy rate but a number of patients remain symptomatic post-procedure. We present an international, multicenter experience evaluating the efficacy and safety of post-HM peroral endoscopic myotomy. For patients with persistent symptoms after HM, POEM is a safe salvation technique with good short-term efficacy.
