| oesophageal carcinoma: types | <radiology> Histologic types: squamous cell carcinoma (95%), adenocarcinoma (4%), 70% from Barrett oesophagus, carcinosarcoma = pseudosarcoma = spindle cell squamous cell carcinoma, usually middle 1/3 of oesophagus, large, polypoid, smooth, intramural mass; may be pedunculated, mucoepidermoid carcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma radiologic types: polypoid/fungating form (most common), sessile/pedunculated tumour with lobulated surface, applecore lesion, ulcerating form, infiltrating form, gradual narrowing with smooth transition (Differential diagnosis: benign stricture), varicoid form: superficial spreading carcinoma, thickened nodular tortuous longitudinal folds (Differential diagnosis: varices) (12 Dec 1998) |
| oesophageal constrictions | Three narrowings of the oesophagus normally demonstrated radiographically following a barium swallow: the upper or pharyngeal oesophageal constriction, at the beginning of the oesophagus, is caused by the cricopharyngeus muscle, often referred to as the superior oesophageal sphincter; the middle or aortic constriction is a left-sided narrowing due to the oesophagus passing the aortic arch; the inferior or diaphragmatic oesophageal constriction corresponds to the passage of the oesophagus through the oesophageal hiatus of the diaphragm. Synonym: impressions of oesophagus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oesophageal diverticula | <radiology> Pharyngo-oesophageal (Zenker), cricopharyngeal spasm, Killian's dehiscence, posterior; if lateral, usually on left, Treatment: diverticulopexy with or without myotomy, mid-oesophageal, pulsion, not traction (not associated with TB), dysmotility, usually asymptomatic, distal (epiphrenic), dyity (including DES and achalasia), symptomatic, usually on right, Treatment: excision and myotomy, ** all due to PULSION (12 Dec 1998) |
| oesophageal diverticulum | Saccular, outward protrusion of all or a portion of the oesophageal wall from the lumen of the oesophagus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| oesophageal dysmotility | <radiology> Achalasia, Chagas disease, pseudoachalasia, scleroderma, diffuse oesophageal spasm, other causes, oesophageal atresia repair, neurologic disease (unilateral pharyngeal paralysis), oesophagitis (12 Dec 1998) |
| oesophageal dysrhythmia | Abnormal motility of the muscular layers of the oesophageal wall, such as occurs in oesophageal spasm. (05 Mar 2000) |

| oesophageal fistula | Abnormal passage communicating with the oesophagus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| oesophageal glands | A variable number of small compound mucous glands in the submucosa of the oesophagus. Synonym: glandulae oesophageae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oesophageal hiatus | The opening in the right crus of the diaphragm, between the central tendon and the hiatus aorticus, through which pass the oesophagus and the two vagus nerves. Synonym: hiatus oesophageus, oesophageal opening. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oesophageal impression | The marking of the oesophagus on the back of the left lobe of the liver. Synonym: impressio oesophagea. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oesophageal intramural pseudo-diverticulosis | <radiology> Dilated submucosal glands and ducts, similar to Rokitansky-Aschoff sinuses of gall bladder, XR: multiple intramural tics, often on one view only, secondary to oesophagitis, relatively asymptomatic, with or without stricture, with or without candidiasis (12 Dec 1998) |
| oesophageal lead | An electrocardiographic lead passed down the throat into the oesophagus to record the electrocardiogram at various levels of the oesophagus; especially useful for certain types of arrhythmias. Similarly, a transducer for echocardiography can be passed into the oesophagus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oesophagus |
The esophagus (also spelled oesophagus/œsophagus), or gullet is the muscular tube in vertebrates through which ingested food passes from the mouth area to the stomach. Food is passed through the esophagus by using the process of peristalsis. ...
