Patients with achalasia tolerate considerable distension of the esophagus. Respiratory symptoms usually are due to regurgitation and pulmonary aspiration of retained food rather than to a space-occupying mechanism. We describe a case of previously undiagnosed achalasia presenting in an elderly woman with symptoms consistent with tracheal obstruction of acute onset.
贲门失弛缓症患者能耐受食管的明显扩张。呼吸症状通常是由于潴留食物的反流和肺吸入,而非占位机制所致。我们描述了一例先前未被诊断出的贲门失弛缓症病例,该病例发生在一位老年女性身上,其症状与急性发作的气管梗阻相符。
