| schatzki ring | <radiology> B ring of distal oesophagus, squamo-columnar junction, with or without hiatus hernia, intemittent symptoms if 13-20 mm, steakhouse syndrome, Treatment: balloon or bougie see: oesophageal webs and rings (12 Dec 1998) |
| schatzki's ring | A congenital anatomic narrowing in the lower 1/3 of the oesophagus that is the result of inappropriate embryological development of the oesophagus.
