Abstract
Background and Aim Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is an established treatment for achalasia cardia (AC), however post-POEM gastroesophageal reflux (GER) remains a significant problem. Concomitant endoscopic fundoplication following POEM (POEM+F) was recently described to reduce post-POEM GER. This single-center study reports medium-term outcomes of POEM+F. Patients and Methods Retrospective analysis of prospectively maintained database of patients undergoing POEM+F. Abstracted data - demographics, achalasia type, pre-POEM Eckardt score (ES), prior therapy, follow-up. Follow-up was 3-monthly for one-year. Follow-up assessments included post-POEM ES, GerdQ score, EGD - wrap integrity and esophagitis, and pH studies. GER was defined according to Lyon consensus. Data was recorded as mean (SD) or median (IQR), P-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results 25 patients underwent POEM+F, mean age (SD) - 40.13 (13.66) years, 12 females. POEM+F was technically successful in 23/25 (92%). Significant dysphagia improvement was seen in all 25 (mean [SD] pre- and post-POEM ES 8.21 [1.08] and 0.1 [0.3] respectively, p < 0.05). Mean total procedure and fundoplication time (SD) - 115.6 (27.2) and 46.7 (12.4) minutes respectively. Time reduced significantly after initial 5 cases. Median follow-up was 12-months (IQR 9 - 13). Intact wrap was seen in 19/23 (82.6%). GER (abnormal EAET) was seen in 2/18 (11.1%); one reported GerdQ > 8. Borderline GER (asymptomatic grade A esophagitis, normal EAET) was identified in 4/22 (18.1%). Two (8%) minor delayed adverse events required no intervention. Conclusions POEM+F is safe and reproducible. At 12-months follow-up, incidence of post-POEM+F GER was low and acceptable.
