Core Tip

Core Tip: Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) has emerged as a transformative treatment for upper gastrointestinal motility disorders, offering significant long-term efficacy with minimal adverse events. Keys to its success include precision in myotomy techniques, interdisciplinary collaboration for enhanced safety, and ongoing efforts to standardize protocols and manage complications. As POEM techniques advance and applications broaden, they promise to revolutionize the management of motility disorders.
