Familial achalasia in two siblings: significance of possible hereditary role.

M R Tryhus1, M Davis, J K Griffith, D S Ablin, H K Gogel.   

Abstract

Familial achalasia in siblings has been reported previously. We describe the clinical and radiographic findings in two siblings with achalasia. A discussion of the possible hereditary influence in achalasia is presented as well as a pertinent review of the literature.
