Laparoscopic Heller myotomy for achalasia: results after 10 years
Surgical Endoscopy, 06/29/09

This procedure significantly decreases the frequency and severity of achalasia symptoms without promoting heartburn. The symptoms of achalasia are durably ameliorated by laparoscopic Heller myotomy during long-term follow-up evaluation, thereby promoting application of this procedure.
