New England Journal of Medicine, 1997
The lower esophageal sphincter regulates the flow of food between the esophagus and the stomach. It is now clear that both the intrinsic smooth muscle of the distal esophagus and the skeletal muscle of the crural diaphragm constitute the sphincter mechanism at the lower end of the esophagus.1 Furthermore, in normal subjects and patients with reflux ...

Carcinosarcoma of the Esophagogastric Junction
Tumori Journal, 2008Carcinosarcoma of the esophagus and the stomach are rare neoplasms characterized by the simultaneous presence of carcinomatous and sarcomatous elements. There is no report in the literature of carcinosarcoma of the esophagogastric junction. We present a case of carcinosarcoma of the esophagogastric junction whose unique clinical presentation, surgical

Cancer of the esophagogastric junction
Surgical Oncology, 2000In the Western world, there has been an alarming rise in the incidence and prevalence of adenocarcinoma arising at the esophagogastric junction during recent decades. Epidemiological, clinical and pathological data support a sub-classification of adenocarcinomas arising in the vicinity of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) into adenocarcinoma of the ...

Esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction
Neurogastroenterology & Motility, 2021AbstractIn the Chicago Classification version 4.0 (CCv4), esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction (EGJOO) is manometrically defined as an elevated median integrated relaxation pressure (IRP) and elevated intrabolus pressure (IBP) during supine wet swallows, and persistently elevated median IRP in the upright position.

Adenocarcinoma of the Esophagogastric Junction
Digestive Diseases, 1999Adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) has increased rapidly in incidence in the latter half of the twentieth century. The increase in incidence has affected white men between the ages of 40 and 60 disproportionately. Understanding the etiology and improving treatment requires careful classification of EGJ tumors.

What is a Normal Esophagogastric Junction?
Gastroenterology, 1972This study deals with the incidence of apparent abnormality of the esophagogastric junction in a group of young asymptomatic individuals. We have defined the esophagogastric junction to be normal if the following criteria were met: (1) absence of hiatus hernia by X-ray; (2) absence of significant gastroesophageal reflux measured by intraesophageal p H

The American Journal of Surgery, 1969
Abstract Current concepts of the esophagogastric junction and its disorders are reviewed. The clinical significance of hiatus herniation is gradually being clarified. In only a minority of carefully selected cases is surgical treatment required. Successful methods of repair emphasize re-establishment and maintenance of a segment of esophagus below ...

Journal of Surgical Research, 1966
Summary Currently available diagnostic techniques involving manometric studies, pH determinations, and cineradiographic techniques have added considerably to our knowledge of the normal and abnormal function of the esophagogastric junction. Nevertheless, these must be viewed in perspective, and they cannot supplant sound clinical judgment in the ...

Accurate identification of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) is crucial for EGJ disease diagnosis, classification, and treatment in daily practice. Although a universally accepted criterion for EGJ has not been established, the most commonly used landmark for endoscopic mucosal EGJ is the proximal end of gastric longitudinal mucosal folds with a high ...
