Core Tip Pseudoachalasia is a rare condition that mimics idiopathic achalasia; therefore, it is frequently misdiagnosed. We report a case of pseudoachalasia caused by diffusely infiltrative esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that was initially misdiagnosed despite conventional imaging and manometric techniques. Magnifying endoscopy and narrow-band imaging and endoscopic ultrasound were essential in identifying subtle malignancy features. This case highlights the importance of maintaining clinical suspicion and utilizing advanced diagnostics to differentiate pseudoachalasia from primary achalasia.
