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

Chemoradiation in Esophagogastric Junction Cancer
2017For decades, primary surgery and radiotherapy (RT) alone were two treatment options for potentially curable esophageal cancer. Outcomes were poor, with most patients developing recurrent disease with associated morbidity and mortality. Both treatment options evolved over time as a result of better staging [1–3] and improved surgical [4–6] and radiation

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 ...

Anatomy of the Esophagogastric Junction
2004The knowledge of the anatomy of the esophagogastric junction, of the contiguous structures (esophagus and stomach) and those that surround and sustain it (membranous and vascular formations, diaphragmatic pillars) is essential for understanding the physiopathology of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) [5,6].

Surgical Strategies for Adenocarcinoma of the Esophagogastric Junction
2009This chapter summarizes the surgical strategies for adenocarcinomas of the distal esophagus, gastric cardia, and subcardial gastric cancer invading the cardia+/-distal esophagus known as adenocarcinomas of the esophagogastric junction (AEG). The different surgical approaches according to the tumor origin, localization, and tumor stage are addressed ...

Carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction.
The American journal of gastroenterology, 1981We have reviewed and analyzed the clinical and radiographic features of 38 patients with proven carcinoma involving the esophagogastric junction. There were 29 cases of adenocarcinoma and nine of squamous cell carcinoma presenting with similar symptoms, surgical findings and radiographic characteristics.
