The objectives of this chapter was to show how motility studies were developed and performed in Poland at the end of century to better understand pathophysiology and improve the clinicians ability to evaluate and treat patients with motility-related disorders. Some of the important historical points along the path to current understanding of the form and function of gastrointestinal motility are presented. Scarce information exists about other than Cracow and Wrocław motility centers in Poland in previous century. Lately sophisticated technology became available in Poland and more centers have begun to yield more effective strategies of treatment and enhanced understanding of the pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying GI motility disorders.
