Neurophysiology of the esophagus
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2014The following, from the 12th OESO World Conference: Cancers of the Esophagus, includes commentaries on the methods and characteristics of esophageal afferents in humans; the pitfalls in characterization of mechanosensitive afferents; the sensitization of esophageal afferents in human studies; the brain source modeling in the understanding of the ...

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 1997
Patients who develop Barrett's esophagus should be entered into an endoscopic surveillance program, including endoscopic biopsy. For patients who do not develop dysplasia, we recommend surveillance every 3 years. Patients with low-grade dysplasia should be surveyed with endoscopy and biopsy every 6 months over the next year, then at 1-year intervals if

Current Opinion in Internal Medicine, 2003
The importance of an in-depth understanding about Barrett esophagus is ultimately to decrease the mortality and morbidity from esophageal adenocarcinoma cancer by early detection of metaplasia and dysplasia and appropriate therapy. This review summarizes several publications in the past year related to the epidemiology, pathogenesis, screening and ...

Summary Eleven patients with leiomyoma of the esophagus were seen at the University of Nebraska Hospitals from 1950 through 1969. We identified the lesion at operation in nine patients and at autopsy in two patients. Eight of the nine patients who came to operation presented with dysphagia or pyrosis. The two patients in whom we made the diagnosis at

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2011
AbstractBarrett's esophagus is an acquired metaplastic abnormality in which the normal stratified squamous epithelium lining of the esophagus is replaced by an intestinal‐like columnar epithelium. While in itself a benign and asymptomatic disorder, the clinical importance of this relatively common condition relates to its role as a precursor lesion to ...

Diseases of the Esophagus, 1998
We report a case of a patient with esophageal tuberculosis, a very uncommon form of extrapulmonar tuberculosis. Initially, because of constitutional symptomatology and radiological findings of mediastinal lymph node enlargement, lymphoma was considered.

Ringed esophagus (feline esophagus) in childhood
Pediatric Radiology, 1997Feline esophagus is a term describing a specific radiological and endoscopic appearance of the esophagus that is attributed to chronic esophagitis. To date only one report has described this appearance in childhood. We present a histologically documented case of this entity including follow-up studies after therapy for esophagitis.

Dysphagia, 1990
Scleroderma (systemic sclerosis) is a connective tissue disorder characterized by thickening and fibrosis of the skin and visceral involvement that may include the heart, lungs, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract. At least 40-50% of patients with scleroderma experience esophageal symptoms such as heartburn and dysphagia, while up to 90% of patients ...

AN experience with 335 cases of carcinoma of the esophagus forms the background but not the basis for this report. Rather, it seems more reasonable to examine smaller successive groups of cases to reflect more accurately changing concepts in management.

Esophagus Benign Diseases of the Esophagus
2008The esophagus is a muscular tube lined with nonkeratinizing squamous epithelium that starts as a continuation of the pharynx and ends as the cardia of the stomach. The esophagus is fixed only at its upper and lower ends, the upper end being firmly attached to the cricoid cartilage and the lower end to the diaphragm. This lack of fixation throughout its
