ABSTRACT
Diffuse esophageal spasm (DES) is a rare disease seen in 4% of all patients studied in an esophageal motility laboratory, and its diagnosis and surgical management is still controversial. Recently, we treated two patients by extended esophageal myotomy for diffuse esophageal spasm which was diagnosed by the clinical symptoms of patients, esophagoscopy, esophagography, and esophageal manometry. The successful result of treatments was proved with subsidence of previous clinical symptoms (dysphagia and chest pain), postoperative esophagography and esophageal manometry. We present the results together with the review of literatures.
