Babu P. Mohan et al. Anterior versus posterior approach in peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM): a systematic review and meta-analysis

Anterior and posterior peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) were compared in this meta-analysis with no difference found in clinical success, adverse events, or post-procedure gastroesophageal reflux disease, but with a shorter procedure time identified for posterior POEM. Although of interest, this meta-analysis is limited by the heterogeneity of study design and assessment methodology for outcomes.
