Clinical efficacy of gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM) in the treatment of refractory gastroparesis and predictors of outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis using surgical pyloroplasty as a comparator group.

G-POEM demonstrates clinical success in treating refractory gastroparesis. Idiopathic gastroparesis, prior treatment with botulinum injections and gastric stimulator appear to have positive predictive effects on the 4-h GES results after G-POEM. Outcomes seem comparable to surgical pyloroplasty.
