4th wk of IULrespiratory diverticulum appears at ventral wall of foregut.
Tracheo-oesophageal septumseparates resp.diverticulum fromdorsal part of foregut.
Thus results the formation of Oesophagus~dorsally
Respiratory primordium~ventrally.
At 1st osophagus is short but later elongates with the descent of heart & lungs.

Topographically, there are three distinct regions: cervical, thoracic, and abdominal.
CERVICAL OESOPHAGUS:
extends from the pharyngoesophageal junction to the suprasternal notch.
about 4 to 5 cm long.
At this level, the esophagus is bordered anteriorly by the trachea, posteriorly by the vertebral column, and laterally by the carotid sheaths and the thyroid gland.
![Page 29: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
THORACIC OESOPHAGUS:
Extends from the suprasternal notchdiaphragmatic hiatus.
Passes posterior to the trachea, the tracheal bifurcation, and the left main stem bronchus.
![Page 30: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The esophagus lies posterior and to the right of the aortic arch at the T4 vertebral level.
From the level of T8 until the diaphragmatic hiatus the esophagus lies anteriorly to the aorta
![Page 31: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
ABDOMINAL OESOPHAGUS:
extends from the diaphragmatic hiatusorifice of the cardia of the stomach.
Forms a truncated cone, about 1 cm long.
![Page 32: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Structurally, the esophageal wall is composed of four layers:
> innermost mucosa,
>submucosa,
>muscularis propria,
>adventitia.
Unlike the remainder of the GI tract, the esophagus has no serosa.
Lined by non keratinised stratifed squamous epithelium.
![Page 33: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

MUSCULATUREThe muscular coat consists
-external layerlongitudinal fibers
-internal layercircular fibers.
The longitudinal fibers are arranged proximally in three fasciculi.
-A ventral fasciculus
-two lateral fasciculi that are continuous with muscle
fibers of the pharynx.
![Page 35: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
LONGITUDINAL FIBRES: form a uniform layer that covers the outer surface of the esophagus.
CIRCULAR FIBRES: provides the sequential peristaltic contraction that propels food toward the stomach.
The circular fibers are continuous with the inferior constrictor muscle of the hypopharynx.
They run transversely in cranial & caudal regions.

The internal muscular layer is thicker than the external muscular layer.
Below the diaphragm, the internal circular musclethickens ,constituting the intrinsic component of LES.
Muscular fibers in the cranial partred and consist chiefly striated muscle.
Intermediate partmixed.
Lower partcontains only smooth muscle.

Two high-pressure zones prevent the backflow of food:
the upper and lower oesophageal sphincter.
These functional zones are located at the upper and lower ends of the oesophagus.
![Page 40: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
UPPER OESOPHAGEAL SPHINCTER
Between pharynx and the cervical oesophagus.
Located at C5-C6 level.
The UES is a musculocartilaginous structure.
Composed of mainly three muscles: cricopharyngeus, thyropharyngeus,cranial cervical oesophagus.
![Page 41: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
The cricopharyngeus muscle is a striated muscle.
produces maximum tension in the A.P direction and less tension in lateral direction.
composed of a mixture of fast- and slow-twitch fibres.
This muscle forms the main component of UES.

LOWER OESOPHAGEAL SPHINCTER
The lower esophageal sphincter is a high-pressure zone located where the esophagus merges with the stomach.
Mean pressure here is approx. 8mm Hg.
![Page 49: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
The LES is a functional unit composed of an intrinsic and an extrinsic component.
INTRINSICoesophageal muscle fibers and is under neurohormonal influence
EXTRINSICdiaphragm muscle.
![Page 50: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
The endoscopic localization of the LES is different from the manometric localization.
The endoscopic localizationdetermined by changes in the esophageal mucosal transition from nonstratified squamous esophageal epithelium to the gastric mucosa “Z-line”or B ring.
Functional location of LES is 3 cm distal to the Z-line.

The ganglia that lie between the longitudinal and the circular layersmyenteric or Auerbach's plexus.
That lie in the submucosa form the submucous or Meissner's plexus.
Auerbach's plexusregulates contraction of the outer muscle layers.
Meissner's plexusregulates secretion and the peristaltic contractions of the muscularis mucosae.

PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION
DEFINITION:
Deglutition is the process of propulsion of bolus of food from oral cavity into stomach.
![Page 61: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
ORAL PHASE:
Voluntary ; under the control of cerebral cortex.
Food bolus~on a depression in middle of tongue.
Bolus held b/w tongue & ant.hard palate
Ant. to post. tongue movement(1 sec)
Movement of bolus into oropharynx.
![Page 62: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)

ORAL PREPERATORY PHASE: processing of bolus to render it swallowable.
ORAL PROPULSIVE PHASE: propelling of food from oral cavity into oropharynx.
![Page 64: ANATOMY OF ESOPHAGUS WITH PHYSIOLOGY OF DEGLUTITION](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052410/554b8bdab4c9056d5f8b5545/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
PHARYNGEAL PHASE:
Soft palate elevates closing the naso pharynx.
Sup.constrictor contracts ; tongue base drives the bolus posteriorly.
Respiration ceases.
Larynx elevates.
