      This muscle serves to prevent the esophagus from filling with air during inspiration. At the lower end of the esophagus, the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) separates the esophagus from the stomach. The LES prevents reflux of irritating gastric contents into the esophagus. The mouth prepares the bolus for swallowing. The lips prevent drooling.

Irregular tertiary contractions and peristaltic movements were evident from the level of the aortic arch inferiorly to the gastroesophageal (GE) junction. The lower esophageal

      Also, at times, they are seen to appear in the lower esophagus when a primary peristaltic wave has reached about the level of the aortic arch. The peristaltic wave may stop at this level or continue down the esophagus to obliterate the tertiary contractions.

      Conclusion Primary symptoms of underlying esophageal disorders, most often due to mechanical or motility disturbance, include heartburn, dysphagia, odynophagia, and regurgitation. Indications for endoscopy are presence of weight loss, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, dysphagia, odynophagia, chest pain, poor

      The abdominal portion of the esophagus is variable in length (0.5–2.5 cm). The esophagus is surrounded by collagen and elastic fibers at the level of the diaphragm. The junction of the esophagus and the stomach lies caudad to the esophageal hiatus of the diaphragm. The phrenicoesophageal membrane anchors the

      Esophagus Normal Motility and Function The function of the esophagus is simply to transport food from the mouth to the stomach, and powerful, synchronized (peristaltic) contractions follow each swallow to accomplish this task. Between swallows, the esophagus usually does not contract. There is a sphincter muscle separating
