[Experiences in the treatment of esophageal achalasia with pneumatic dilatation]. 1985

K Siedentopf, and E Schwenke

The results of the pneumatic cardia dilation in 17 patients are reported, which were yielded by means of a cardia dilation performed in doses. In this case an anaesthesia could be renounced. The pneumatic dilation performed in such a way proved as a risk-poor and effective method which loads the patient only insignificantly, is easily to be performed and has a large range of indication.
