Distal oesophageal spasm is a rare condition that affects the
motility of the oesophagus. It can be diagnosed by highresolution oesophageal manometry and the diagnosis is
supported by other modalities such as barium swallow and
esophagogastroduodenoscopy examinations. Treatment
options include pharmacological therapy, endoscopy and
surgical interventions. We described a case of distal
oesophageal spasm in an elderly patient who presented with
chronic dyspepsia.
