Brief Summary   This study was a continuation of previous thesis, with two groups- retrospective- follow up of patients previously operated and prospectively a randomised parallel group trial comparing two antireflux procedures namely Angle of His accentuation and Dor’s fundoplication in patients of Achalasia Cardia undergoing Laparoscopic Heller’s cardiomyotomy. Primary out come measure was symptomatic relief in terms of dysphagia, regurgitation, heartburn and quality of life. Secondary outcome was new onset  heartburn. As the duration of the study, intervention and outcome measures were same as the previous study, a minimum sample size of 20 was calculated with 95% confidence interval and 80% power. We included all the patients enrolled in within the duration of the study from February 2012 to October 2013.
