    Aims Incomplete myotomy has been ascribed to high recurrence rate of 11% that led to concept of completely CP myotomy in the treatment of ZD, but not without risk of perforation. we aim to describe modified technique of minimally invasive complete myotomy

    Methods We carried out complete myotomy using Z-ATM approach in a 65 year male with recurrent ZD few years after stapling operation

    Results There was no procedure related complications. Patient symptoms free at 6 Months follow up

    Conclusions Z-ATM in a preliminary experience offers minimally invasive myotomy and provide a true endoscopic solution of ZD to reduce recurrence.
