Achalasia is an esophageal motility disorder characterized by a lack of peristalsis and an increased lower esophageal sphincter pressure that does not relax with swallowing. High-resolution manometry (HRM), a valuable diagnostic tool for esophageal disorders, often comes with software for automated study interpretation. Although helpful, there are certain caveats in the diagnostic criteria for achalasia which the software may miss. We highlight 2 patients in whom software analysis of HRM studies resulted in misdiagnosis of achalasia as manometrically detected nonachalasia esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction and emphasize the importance of manual interpretation of HRM data by clinicians.
