Medical - Medical (general) / achalasie
French term or phrase: pathologies associées
Hello!
could you help me with this term?

Il parait important de rechercher des *pathologies associées* à l'achalasie chez ces nourrissons et légitime de leur proposer un traitement médical par inhibiteurs calciques en première intention.

Thank you in advance!

symptomes and effects associated with


Explanation:
Hi
I initially would have thought the same as Liz but my Larousse says that pathologie(which I've always thought meant illness or disease ) means 'ensemble des manifestations d'une maladie, des effets morbides qu'elle entraine'
so that slightly changes things - its not the diseases that are associated or linked to alchalasie but rather its symptomes etc.Hope this helps
