The conundrum of esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction: Answers to key clinical questions
Esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction (EGJOO) is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by abnormal esophagogastric junction residual pressures in the setting of intact esophageal body peristalsis. This manometric finding is most clinically relevant in patients with dysphagia and chest pain, and may arise from various mechanisms, including structural processes, catheter positioning artifact, and medications. Rarely, manometric EGJOO is a consequence of abnormal relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) akin to achalasia. Thus, it is critical in the evaluation of EGJOO to determine if a true pressure gradient exists across the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) that warrants therapy. There are many unanswered questions in EGJOO diagnosis and management, which are addressed in this review in the context of the use of provocative maneuvers during high‐resolution manometry, complementary and alternate testing, and therapeutic options.
期刊介绍:
Published on behalf of the New York Academy of Sciences, Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences provides multidisciplinary perspectives on research of current scientific interest with far-reaching implications for the wider scientific community and society at large. Each special issue assembles the best thinking of key contributors to a field of investigation at a time when emerging developments offer the promise of new insight. Individually themed, Annals special issues stimulate new ways to think about science by providing a neutral forum for discourse—within and across many institutions and fields.
