Surgical pathologies of the esophagus are diseases or conditions that may require surgical intervention in the esophagus. Some of the surgical pathologies of the esophagus include:
• Gastroesophageal reflux: It is a condition where stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing inflammation and damaging the lining of the esophagus.
• Esophageal diverticulosis: This is a condition where ridges form on the wall of the esophagus. In severe cases, it may require surgery to remove the diverticula.
• Esophageal cancer: In cases diagnosed late or in advanced stages, esophageal cancer may require surgery to remove the affected part of the esophagus or to create a new secure connection between the remaining parts of the esophagus and the stomach .
• Esophageal stenoses: Elevation of the narrowing in the esophagus can cause difficulty in passing food.
• Achalasia: A condition where the lower esophageal sphincter does not open properly, causing difficulty in passing food.
🔹It is important to note that surgical treatment for these conditions depends on the degree of risk, the patient's general health, and other factors. Consultation with a surgeon is necessary to determine the most appropriate treatment options for each particular case.
