“…3 Of these, nutcracker oesophagus, characterized by high-amplitude oesophageal contractions, is the most frequently encountered. 3,4 However, the relationship between nutcracker oesophagus and non-cardiac chest pain has been the subject of controversy for decades. Whereas some regard nutcracker oesophagus as a manometric anomaly, [5][6][7] others believe that the pain could be evoked by forceful peristaltic contractions.…”

“…Possuem baixo custo e são de fácil realização pois não necessitam de equipamentos complexos, apresentando positividade que varia de 10% a 66,6% (4,9,18,27,34,45,53) . Embora existam vários testes provocativos descritos na literatura, os mais utilizados são os testes de perfusão ácida, o do edrofônio e o da distensão esofagiana com balão.…”

“…Papel dos testes provocativos esofagianos na investigação de pacientes com dor torácica de origem indeterminada média obtida nos 10 controles saudáveis, confirmando, assim, a origem esofagiana da dor. Esta positividade é descrita na literatura entre 5% a 68% (4,7,9,11,26,31,45) .…”

“…These observations have led many investigators to conclude that the observed manometric abnor-called hyperalgesia. The notion that patients with NCCP are more sensitive to esophageal distension has been sugmalities in patients with NCCP are not important causally and serve instead as markers for a disturbed sensorineural gested by previous studies using intra-esophageal balloons inflated to different volumes [31][32][33]. However, system.…”
