Laparoscopic Heller Myotomy Versus Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM) for Achalasia: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
TL;DR: Short-term results show that POEM is more effective than LHM in relieving dysphagia, but it is associated with a very high incidence of pathologic reflux.

Effect of Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy vs Pneumatic Dilation on Symptom Severity and Treatment Outcomes among Treatment-Naive Patients with Achalasia: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Fraukje A. Ponds,Paul Fockens,A. Lei,Horst Neuhaus,Torsten Beyna,Jennis Kandler,Thomas Frieling,Philip Wai Yan Chiu,Justin C Y Wu,Vivien W. Wong,Guido Costamagna,Guido Costamagna,Pietro Familiari,Peter J. Kahrilas,John E. Pandolfino,André J.P.M. Smout,Albert J. Bredenoord +16 more
TL;DR: Treatment with POEM compared with pneumatic dilation resulted in a significantly higher treatment success rate at 2 years, and these findings support consideration of POEM as an initial treatment option for patients with achalasia.

TL;DR: POEM appears to be an effective and safe alternative to LHM in patients with type III achalasia and allows for a longer myotomy than LHM, which may result in improved clinical outcomes.

TL;DR: Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) was developed by as mentioned in this paper to provide a less invasive permanent treatment for esophageal achalasia, which significantly reduced the dysphagia symptom score (from mean 10 to 1.3; P = 0.0001).

John E. Pandolfino,Monika A. Kwiatek,Thomas B. Nealis,William J. Bulsiewicz,Jennifer Post,Peter J. Kahrilas +5 more
TL;DR: Achalasia can be categorized into 3 subtypes that are distinct in terms of their responsiveness to medical or surgical therapies that will likely strengthen future prospective studies of treatment efficacy in achalasia.
