• Fig GI 2-1 Three impressions on the cervical esophagus: cricopharyngeal impression (curved arrow), pharyngeal venous plexus (short closed arrow), and esophageal web (short open arrow).2

• Fig GI 2-2 Epidermolysis bullosa. A stenotic web (arrow) results from the healing of subepidermal blisters involving the mucous membranes.

Fig GI 2-3 Benign mucous membrane pemphigus. Post inflammatory scarring causes a long, irregular area of narrowing suggestive of a malignant process.

• Fig GI 2-4 Anterior marginal osteophytes.

• Fig GI 2-5 Enlargement of the thyroid gland. Smooth impression in the cervical esophagus (arrow).

Fig GI 2-6 Ectopic gastric mucosa. Persistent ring-like narrowing (arrows) in the upper esophagus at the level of the thoracic inlet.3
