      usually teaches that diffuse esophageal spasm spares the lower esophageal sphincter without producing achalasialike changes in the distal esophagus on barium studies [4, 6]. In fact, many radiologists are not aware of the associa-tion between diffuse esophageal spasm and lower esophageal sphincter dysfunction on manometry. The purpose of our ...

      Lower Esophageal Sphincter Spasm. In some patients, spasms can arise in the lower part of the Esophageal Sphincter. It can result in symptoms similar to Dysphagia. The affected person can suffer from difficulties in swallowing. This can be cured with the aid of Localized Myotomy. Occasionally, there may spasms in the Upper Esophageal Sphincter.

      Distal esophageal spasm (DES) is a rare major motility disorder in the Chicago classification of esophageal motility disorders (CC). DES is diagnosed by finding of ≥ 20% premature contractions, with normal lower esophageal sphincter (LES) relaxation on high-resolution manometry (HRM) in the latest version of CCv3.0.

      Gastro-esophageal reflux disease is a condition that affects a small ring of muscle that is between the esophagus and the stomach. The ring of muscle is the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), and it allows food to pass into the stomach. When the muscle does not work properly, food and stomach acids can flow backward into the esophagus.

      M.E. Allaix, M.G. Patti, in Reference Module in Biomedical Sciences, 2014 Lower Esophageal Sphincter. The LES measures 3–4 cm in length and its resting pressure ranges between 15 and 35 mmHg. At the time of swallowing, the LES relaxes for 5–10 s to allow the food bolus to enter the stomach and then regains its resting tone.

      Diffuse Esophageal Spasm: A Case Study Kristin Vaught Faculty: Lyn Goldberg Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders Abstract. The esophagus functions to transport food and liquid from the pharynx to the stomach. It is comprised of striated and smooth muscle and has specialized sphincters at its proximal (upper) and distal (lower) ends.
