ABSTRACT
Diffuse esophageal spasm is an esophageal motility disorder of unknown cause that from the
clinical standpoint provokes thoracic pain resembling precordial angina of cardiovascular and
dysphagia origin. Its diagnosis is sometimes difficult, has a vital support on esophageal manometry
and barium study of the esophagus. The treatment of these patients is controversial and varied
given their relative rarity and the lack of randomized controlled studies, so there are different
options for medical treatment, endoscopic or surgical. It was carried out a bibliographic review of
this condition addressed to all physicians of our health system in order to help provide a better care
to our population. Different sources were consulted for performing it.
