Abstract
Endoscopic image of achalasia usually shows dilated esophageal cavity with retained liquids and foods. Recently, “pinstripe pattern” (PSP) in the case of achalasia patient was reported as an endoscopic image of the indicator for early detection of achalasia. The typical endoscopic image of PSP can be recognized in this case.
