Abstract
Twenty-four patients, composed of six patients each of esophageal atony+esophagitis+hypertrophy of lingual tonsil, esophageal atony+esophagitis, esophageal atony + hypertrophy of lingual tonsil, and esophageal atony, out of twenty-eight male and four female patients with abnormal sensation in the larynx and the esophagus were treated with Vagostigmin injections and the radiothermie. Fifteen patients (62.5%) were cured of the subjective symptoms and eight patients (33.3%) took favorable turns. Seven patients (29.1%) were cured and sixteen (66.7%) took favorable turns with esophageal atony; one (8.3%) was cured and three (25.0%) took favorable turns with esophagtis.
It was induced that the esophageal atony is an important factor in this group of symptoms and some part of esophagitis can ensue from the esophageal atony.
