Myotomy

Myotomy

Myotomy is a surgical procedure designed to treat various conditions characterized by abnormal muscle contractions or spasms, particularly in the gastrointestinal tract. This technique involves carefully cutting or incising the muscles, aiming to relieve excessive muscle tension and restore normal function. Primarily used to address issues like achalasia, a condition where the lower esophageal sphincter fails to relax, myotomy aims to facilitate easier passage of food and liquids into the stomach by creating a controlled incision in the affected muscles. By disrupting the muscle fibers or reducing their tension, myotomy allows for improved movement and relaxation, easing the symptoms of swallowing difficulties and discomfort. This procedure can be performed through traditional open surgery or minimally invasive techniques such as laparoscopy or robotic-assisted surgery. Minimally invasive approaches offer shorter recovery times, reduced scarring, and decreased postoperative discomfort compared to open surgery. Myotomy, while effective, isn't without potential risks, such as bleeding, infection, or damage to nearby structures. Nevertheless, when performed by skilled surgeons, myotomy often provides significant relief to patients suffering from conditions marked by excessive muscle contractions, improving their quality of life by restoring normal muscular function.
