11 1 Oesophagus 1. 1). For purposes of practicality during endoscopic procedures, the site of a lesion in the oesophagus is given as the distance from the upper incisor teeth. As it is approximately 16 cm from the upper incisor teeth to the proximal oesophageal limit, the OG junction is at approximately 40–41 cm. The oesophagus traverses the neck, thorax and enters the abdominal cavity and so can be anatomically divided into three sub-sites: 1. 2. 3. Cervical oesophagus: 2–3 cm long and extends from the proximal oesophageal limit (C6) to the thoracic inlet, which is marked by the surface landmark of the suprasternal notch of the sternum (breast bone).

Neoplastic Conditions Predisposing conditions: predisposition to gastric neoplasia occurs with HP gastritis, gastric atrophy and previous partial gastrectomy with gastroenterostomy. Antecedent lesions include incomplete intestinal metaplasia (type IIb/III large intestinal variant) and epithelial dysplasia. 1). Low-grade dysplasia requires endoscopic follow-up while high-grade dysplasia should be considered for surgical resection due to the strong association (30–80%) with concurrent or subsequent cancer.

A peptic ulcer has a classic endoscopic appearance in that it is round/oval and sharply “punched out” with straight walls. Heaping up of mucosal margins is rare in benign ulcers and should raise the suspicion of malignancy. Size does not reliably differentiate between benign and malignant ulcers as 10% of benign ulcers are greater than 4 cm in diameter. Tumours covered by intact mucosa such as diffuse gastric carcinoma or GISTs are often difficult to demonstrate by mucosal biopsy and endoscopic FNA may be employed.
