Summary:Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a widespread chronic disease in which stomach or duodenal contents rise up into the esophagus. Esophageal spasm and achalasia cardia are poorly studied disorders associated with impaired neuromuscular impulse transmission and motor discoordination of the esophagus, manifested by chest pain and dysphagia. The article presents a clinical case of a young patient with gastroesophageal reflux disease and a history of atypical chest pain requiring differential diagnosis between variants of impaired esophageal motility.
