The updated and expanded Second edition of the Atlas of Esophageal Diseases provides an 11-chapter visual panorama of the esophagus in both health and disease. More than 600 detailed images, including many hand-drawn illustrations, cover all aspects of the esophagus. The Atlas opens with a chapter on esophageal anatomy and physiology, and takes the reader through an exploration of gastroesophageal reflux disease, pH-monitoring, and finally, surgery of the esophagus.

The esophagus is a long, tubular organ designed to actively esophageal anatomy and physiology, whose content is self transmit ingested material from the mouth to the stomach. To explanatory, this volume takes us through chapters that do this it is constructed of two bundles of muscle-an inner encompass the role of endoscopy and manometry, pH-moni circular bundle and an outer longitudinal bundle-for peri toring, and Bernstein testing in patient assessment, as well as stalsis, and an inner lining of moist stratified squamous epithe reviews of gastroesophageal reflux disease, acute esophagitis, lium for protection. These structures are remarkable for their endoscopic ultrasonography, esophageal motor disorders, the pharynx, esophageal tumors, noncardiac chest pain, thera capacity to effect safe passage of materials to the stomach whether hot or cold, rough or smooth, hypertonic or hypotonic, peutic endoscopy, and concludes with a chapter detailing acidic or alkaline, or direct chemical irritants (eg, alcohol).

This new edition of the Atlas of Esophageal Diseases provides an 11-chapter visual panorama of the esophagus in both health and disease. Over 600 detailed images covering the most relevant aspects of the esophagus are included. Edited by Dr. Roy C. Orlando, the book begins with a chapter on esophageal anatomy and physiology, and takes the reader through an exploration of gastroesophageal reflux disease, pH-monitoring, and finally, surgery of the esophagus. Also illustrated and expounded upon are topics including acute esophagitis, endoscopic ultrasonography, esophageal motor disorders, and additional material pertaining to esophageal diseases. As Orlando explains, the contributing authors dedicated much time, energy, and expertise in order to bring the book to fruition
