@EzraTeitelbaum @RKeswaniMD @JRassiwala @DouglasAdlerMD @Scopesdoc @gastrowala @allie_schulman @SoudagarGIMD If you can’t get the scope up into CHD, antegrade stent and leave for GI to deal with later is reasonable. Same session lap assisted ercp also still an option.

@EzraTeitelbaum @amber_shada @andrewswright @MTPapaD @kia_leila @JJFordeMD @DomFarinaMD @WalterChanMD Lot of TIF answers, I don’t see any blue T-fasteners. Also, can a TIF herniate? I would think it can’t really since the T-fasteners also go through the esophagus.

Type III, I recommend POEM.

[Joseph Triggs, MD, PhD @JRTriggs]

I find it depends on which provider sees the patient first. GIs typically move to scope and primary care or other providers often get esophagram.

I think the reality is EGD tends to get done first. Anyone have a different perspective?

[Sri Komanduri @Scopesdoc]

Could not agree more. The AGA Tech Summit is a hidden gem and one that every GI would find engaging and extremely valuable for practice. Join us for this amazing event in SF!@ASGEendoscopy @AmCollegeGastro @AmerGastroAssn

@EzraTeitelbaum POEM for achalasia! More so than any other case I do, the patients come back and tell me I changed their life for the better.

[Joseph Triggs, MD, PhD @JRTriggs]

@EzraTeitelbaum @kia_leila @WalterChanMD @SalihSamo @MTPapaD Agree with most here. Would counsel regarding safety and efficacy of ppi. Would would go far to say I recommend staying on lowest effect dose over surgery but if the patient has true interest and wants referral I will send to at least discuss options.
