RESUMO
La Enfermedad por Reflujo Gastroesofágico es el resultado de varias situaciones, con un desequilibrio entre los factores defensivos y la integridad de la barrera antirreflujo. El diagnóstico se realiza por los elementos clínicos, la endoscopia, la histología y la pHmetría esofágica. La Manometría Esofágica nos permite co- nocer el estado de la barrera antirreflujo y los trastornos motores se asocian a estos pacientes, que facilitan el desarrollo de la enfermedad. En este trabajo se estudian las características de los factores de motilidad, a través de la manometría esofágica, en un grupo de pacientes, con Enfermedad por Reflujo Gastroeso fágico.
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease is the result of several situations, with an imbalance between the defensive factors, and the integrity of the antireflux barrier. Diagnosis is made by clinical, endoscopy, histology and esophageal pHmetry. Esophageal manometry allows us to understand the behavior of this barrier and the disease´s development. In this paper, we study the charactequeristics of motility factors, by esophageal manometry, in a group of patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.

Three patients with abdominal pain were studied and through ultrasonography, it was suspected that they had Fasciola hepatica in their gallbladder and choedochio. By using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), the presence of parasites in extrahepatic biliary passages of the cases was confirmed and then, it was taken out with a Dormia basket. It was concluded that imaging is a diagnostic means to be considered in this parasitosis.
