In brief
This study compares per-oral endoscopic pyloromyotomy (POP) with laparoscopic pyloroplasty (LP) for treating medically refractory gastroparesis. POP demonstrates lower perioperative morbidity while achieving similar functional outcomes to LP, supporting its use as a less invasive alternative for gastroparesis management.
Written by the GCMD Library team from the article.
Per-oral endoscopic pyloromyotomy (POP) is safe and effective for the treatment of medical refractory gastroparesis. POP has less perioperative morbidity compared to LP with comparative functional outcomes.
