Observations on the human cardia at operation.
The pressure required to overcome resistance at the oesophagogastric junction was measured at operaaon in fifteen subjects and found to be 20 cm H,O from both oesophageal and gastric aspects. Altering the angle of entry of the oesophagus to the stomach by fundal depression or occlusion did not affect these pressures, in contradistinction to the results in the cadaver (Marchand, 1955). Dividing ...
متن کاملNeuro-muscular Incoordination at the Cardia in the Newborn.
Hurst (1915) coined the word achalasia, i.e. absence of relaxation, to describe a neuro-muscular incoordination in the alimentary tract. Previously, Rolleston (1896) had suggested such an incoordination to explain some cases of dilatation of the oesophagus. The condition was then known as cardiospasm, a word introduced in 1882 by Mikulicz (1904). Earlier it was known as simple or idiopathic dil...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical study of neuroendocrine cells at the gastric cardia mucosa.
BACKGROUND/AIMS The gastric cardia mucosa is a narrow band of tissue between the oesophagus and the stomach. The physiological role of this tissue is unknown. This study examined the presence and characteristics of neuroendocrine cells at this site. METHODS Biopsy samples were obtained from across normal appearing squamocolumnar junctions. The cardiac mucosa was defined as the presence of spe...
متن کاملIs yield pressure at the cardia increased by effective fundoplication?
Yield pressure at the cardia was measured before and after fundoplication in 10 patients; five had a Nissen fundoplication and five a Belsey mark IV procedure. Surgery was considered successful if oesophagitis healed or if 24 hour pH monitoring returned to normal. There was a marked rise in yield pressure in all eight patients with a successful operation. Yield pressure remained low in two pati...
متن کاملFoveolar hyperplasia at the gastric cardia: prevalence and associations.
AIMS In the gastric antrum and body, foveolar hyperplasia is a feature of reactive gastritis resulting from--for example, duodenogastric bile reflux and the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The aim of this study was to examine the occurrence and clinical relevance of gastric cardiac foveolar hyperplasia. METHODS The study population was drawn from a consecutive series of...
