Abstract

The most common presenting symptoms of achalasia are dysphagia, recurrent regurgitation, and gradual weight loss. Surprisingly, many achalasia patients tolerate considerable esophageal distention without complaint. In very few cases is respiratory distress the only presenting symptom of achalasia. We describe such a case.

摘要

贲门失弛缓症最常见的症状是吞咽困难、反复反流和体重逐渐减轻。令人惊讶的是，许多贲门失弛缓症患者能耐受相当程度的食管扩张而无不适主诉。在极少数情况下，呼吸窘迫是贲门失弛缓症唯一的症状。我们描述了这样一个病例。
