However the relationship between achalasia and gastric bypass is not clearly understood and has only recently been reported following gastric bypass.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>PRESENTATION OF CASE:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We present the case of a 53-year-old woman who re-presented following a gastric bypass with a new diagnosis of achalasia.
