Endoscopic pyloromyotomy for postesophagectomy gastric outlet obstruction

Gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy for refractory gastroparesis: results from the first multicenter study on endoscopic pyloromyotomy (with video)

“…Subsequently, case reports and small single-center series showed encouraging results with G-POEM. [10][11][12] Here, we aim to report the first multicenter experience with G-POEM and assess the efficacy and safety of this novel procedure for gastroparetic patients with symptoms refractory to medical therapy.…”

Peroral endoscopic pyloromyotomy for primary pyloric stenosis

“…The standard treatment is balloon dilation, pyloroplasty, or occasionally surgical distal gastrectomy [1]. Peroral endoscopic pyloromyotomy (POP) has been used to improve gastric emptying in selected patients with refractory gastroparesis due to diabetes [2,3] or with gastric outlet obstruction following esophagectomy [4]. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case in which POP was used to treat PPS.…”

Pyloric Sphincter Therapy

“…Postprocedure imaging showed delayed gastric emptying; however, a preprocedure comparison was not available, as she had been vomiting too profusely to tolerate gastric scintigraphy. This initial report was followed by a second report evaluating endoscopic pyloromyotomy in a 38-year-old woman with postsurgical gastroparesis from Chaves and colleagues 47 from Brazil in early 2014 and by a third report in a 54-year-old woman with postesophagectomy gastroparesis from Chung and colleagues 48 in France.…”
