Overview
Achalasia is a rare swallowing disorder that is most commonly idiopathic in nature. Allgrove syndrome is a strong risk factor. Other possible risk factors are herpes, measles, autoimmune diseases and HLA type II.[1][2][3][4]
Risk Factors
- Allgrove syndrome, also known as triple-A syndrome (AAA), or as Achalasia-Addisonianism-Alacrimia syndrome,
- Herpes infection[1]
- Measles infection[2]
- Autoimmune diseases[3]
- HLA type 2[4]
