Morbid obesity is a disease encompassing multiple, significant comorbidities. The only current, reliable, durable treatment of obesity is surgical intervention, most commonly gastric bypass. Achalasia, a swallowing disorder of esophageal motility and failure of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) to relax, is rarely seen in the morbidly obese patient. Treatment is directed at disruption of the LES to allow passage of food. As medical management usually fails in both disease processes, surgical treatment is often chosen. The patient with both morbid obesity and achalasia presents an unusual challenge for surgical treatment. The standard surgical approach for each disease does not address the other, and may have deleterious consequences on the other condition if approached unilaterally. We present the first case of a patient treated with a concomitant laparoscopic esophagogastric myotomy (LEM) and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGBP).
