Objective:To evaluate a better method for the outcome of achalasia between laparoscopic Heller procedures(LHP)with partial fundoplications and thoracoscopic procedures(TP).Methods: Eighty patients with achalasia were treated by LHP with partial fundoplications and another 120 cases re- ceived TP treatment.All the patients were from the First and Second Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong Universi- ty.Their clinical information including dysphagia after surgery,operation time,staying in hospital,ab- normal gastroesophageal reflux and pH assay were recorded.Results:Achalasia treated by LHP with par- tial fundoplications can make a higher outcome remission rate compared to TP.Conclusion:LHP with par- tial fundoplications is better than TP.It is an ideal surgery for achalasia up to now.
