About

Researchers are reviewing and analyzing surgical and clinical outcomes of subjects who underwent POPE for end-stage achalasia, a sigmoid esophagus, or a redundant conduit that has been used to replace the esophagus. This data will help researchers determine the safety and efficacy of a novel minimally invasive treatment compared to invasive surgery.

Full description
