| Summary: | Gastroparesis is a chronic gastric motility disorder characterized by delayed gastric emptying and debilitating symptoms. In refractory cases, interventions targeting the pylorus (gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy [G-POEM] and surgical pyloroplasty) have emerged as effective therapeutic options. This narrative review compares the efficacy, safety, durability, and cost-effectiveness of G-POEM and pyloroplasty in adult patients with medically refractory gastroparesis. |
