Achalasia Balloon Dilatation Treatment in Lahore

A doctor and nurse performing an achalasia balloon dilatation on a sedated patient, with the nurse holding an inflated balloon catheter and pressure gauge, while dual monitors show the endoscopic view of the balloon in the esophagus and the fluoroscopic view.

Achalasia Cardia is a primary motor disorder of the esophagus where the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) fails to relax, preventing food and fluids from entering the stomach. Dr. Muhammad Raza provides state-of-the-art pneumatic balloon dilatation in Lahore, offering rapid, non-surgical symptom relief.

A lightbox displaying side-by-side barium swallow X-rays labeled pre-treatment bird's beak appearance of the lower esophageal sphincter and post-treatment widened passage, illustrating pneumatic balloon dilatation for achalasia.

Pneumatic dilation remains the most effective non-surgical treatment for achalasia. Utilizing specialized high-pressure balloons positioned accurately across the gastroesophageal junction under endoscopic and fluoroscopic vision, the contracted muscle fibers are carefully stretched to restore normal food passage.

Frequently Asked Questions

A specialized large-diameter balloon is inflated across the tight lower esophageal valve to tear some of the spastic muscle fibers, allowing food to drop easily into the stomach.

Pneumatic dilatation is a proven, highly successful, minimally invasive outpatient alternative that avoids the incision, pain, and long recovery of surgical myotomy.

Patients rest in our observation unit for a few hours and can generally resume light, soft oral intake within 24 to 48 hours.

The majority of patients experience symptom resolution for several years. If tightness recurs over time, a repeat dilatation or medical reassessment can be safely performed.

You will be monitored in our day care unit for a few hours, undergo a water-soluble check if indicated, and usually be discharged home the same day.
