The process of swallowing unfolds in three stages: oral, pharyngeal, and oesophageal, lasting approximately 1.5 seconds. Initially voluntary, it transitions into a reflexive action and can be broken down into six steps. There are three types of oesophageal peristalsis: primary, secondary and tertiary.
Many different conditions can occur in the oesophagus, including reflux, oesophagitis, Barrett’s oesophagus, oesophageal cancer, achalasia and Mallory-Weiss syndrome. These diseases are diagnosed based on symptoms, physical examination findings and diagnostic tests, and their treatment varies depending on the symptoms, severity of the disease and underlying causes. Understanding the complexity of these conditions is an important step in successfully managing them in practice.
