The purpose of therapy in esophageal achalasia is to reduce the pressure at the level of the lower esophageal sphincter. In this study 26 patients (16 males and 10 females) between 30 and 50 years of age, affected by esophageal achalasia underwent esophageal dilatation with Rigiflex pneumatic dilators. A total of 40 dilatations were performed. A complete success using the Rigiflex pneumatic dilators, was achieved in 24 out of 26 patients (92.3%).
