  • Title: Transition form nonspecific motility disorder to achalasia.
    Author: Shiflett DW, Wu WC, Ott DJ.
    Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1980 Apr; 73(4):325-8. PubMed ID: 7416127.
    Abstract:
    Achalasia is thought to be closely related to other motility disorders of the esophagus. In spite of this, transition between these disorders has rarely been documented. We present a patient who underwent a transition from a nonspecific motility disorder to achalasia. In addition there was return of peristalsis following a Heller myotomy.
