“Bypassing Large Vessels During POEM in Achalasia Patients Reduces Operative Time and Blood Loss”

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38095216

The study found that bypassing large submucosal vessels during peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) in achalasia patients reduces operative time and intraoperative blood loss, with similar clinical outcomes and fewer hemostatic interventions compared to prophylactic electrocoagulation of these vessels.
