he cause of achalasia is mostly idiopathic, but secondary achalasia were occasionally
found, of which gastric adenocarcinoma is by far the most common. We report a case of
secondary achalasia associated with esophageal leiomyoma. The patient presented with
clinical, radiologic and manometric features of achalasia with the submucosal tumor on
endoscopy, esophagogram, and CAT scanning of chest and abdomen. The excistion of mass,
segmental resection of lower esophagus and gastroesophgeal unction and esophagogastrostomy
were perfomed. Histological examination demonstrated apperances consistent with leiomyoma.
