Achalasia, diffuse esophageal spasm, and nutcracker esophagus constitute the main primary esophageal motility disorders. During the past decade major progress has been made in understanding their pathophysiology and in the ability to establish a precise diagnosis. In addition, minimally invasive surgical intervention has radically changed the therapeutic approach, and thoracoscopic or laparoscopic myotomy is probably the best treatment for most patients.
贲门失弛缓症、弥漫性食管痉挛和胡桃夹食管是主要的原发性食管动力障碍。在过去十年中，在理解其病理生理学以及精确诊断能力方面取得了重大进展。此外，微创外科手术干预彻底改变了治疗方法，胸腔镜或腹腔镜肌切开术可能是大多数患者的最佳治疗方法。
