gastroesophageal junction(English)
- defined as an imaginary line that is drawn at the point where the esophagus ends and the stomach begins. The only criteria that mark the gastroesophageal junction are the point of the peritoneal reflection, the association of esophageal submucosal glands with esophageal epithelium, and the proximal limit of gastric oxyntic mucosa. The esophageal submucosal glands drain by ducts that open at the lumen and are a useful histologic marker for esophagus
