ABSTRACT
Pseudoachalasia is a distinct clinical entity that mimics idiopathic achalasia. However, the pathophysiology of pseudoachalasia is debated. Although neoplastic involvement of the distal esophagus is the most common cause of pseudoachalasia, benign disease of the distal esophagus could result in clinical entity of pseudoachalasia as well. We report a case of pseudoachalasia following a benign esophageal stricture by gastroesophageal reflux disease, which needs to differentiate from malignant esophageal strictures.
