About
Priya Rajdev is a surgeon-scholar whose work centers on the definitive operative management of achalasia, with a particular focus on laparoscopic cardiomyotomy (LCM). Her most-cited paper, "Laparoscopic cardiomyotomy: historical overview and current operative approach" (2020), provides a comprehensive synthesis of the procedure’s evolution, from its historical roots to the modern, minimally invasive technique. In this work, Rajdev meticulously outlines the critical preoperative workup—including detailed history, endoscopy, esophagogram, and high-resolution manometry—emphasizing how precise patient selection and surgical planning optimize outcomes. While her citation count is modest, her contribution lies in distilling complex surgical knowledge into a clear, actionable guide for trainees and practicing surgeons, bridging historical context with current best practices. Rajdev’s focus on standardizing the approach to LCM reflects a commitment to improving surgical education and patient care in esophageal motility disorders. Her work serves as a valuable resource for researchers and clinicians seeking a concise yet thorough understanding of this cornerstone procedure in the management of achalasia.
