Malignant pseudoachalasia

Abstract

During the course of a laparoscopic Heller myotomy, a patient thought to have primary achalasia was found instead to have an adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction. Aspects of this patient's clinical course, which are exemplary of malignant pseudoachalasia, are discussed, as are ways in which this not uncommon error in diagnosis can be avoided.
