  • Description: Treatment efficacy was measured by immediate technical success, absence of leak on esophagram, and symptom evaluation at follow-up. Procedural details of incision length, anterior/posterior approach, type of incision, myotomy length, and number and type of clips (RC vs SC - (Figure) used for zipper closure technique were noted.
