Evaluating the Additional Value of Endoscopic Ultrasonography for Depth Assessment of Esophagogastric Junction Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is sometimes used to assess the depth of invasion in esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma (EGJA); however, its diagnostic performance in EGJA remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the additional value of EUS to conventional endoscopy (CE) in assessing invasion depth. Methods In this single‐

Impact of Hiatus Hernia and Reflux on Bolus Transport Through the Esophagus and the Esophagogastric Junction and in Relation to Dysphagia

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 37, Issue 11, November 2025.
Hiatus hernia alters esophageal anatomy, generating mechanical resistance in the mid‐distal esophagus that impairs bolus transport to the stomach. These findings are also observed in patients with reflux and are associated with dysphagia symptoms. ABSTRACT Background Dysphagia and reflux are frequently experienced by individuals with hiatus hernia (HH),
