Book Description
Hiatal hernia syndrome refers to the symptoms that result from a hiatal hernia, which is when part of the stomach protrudes up through an opening in the diaphragm called the esophageal hiatus. The two most common types are sliding and paraesophageal hernias. While a hiatal hernia itself is not dangerous, it can lead to a condition called gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), which can cause symptoms like heartburn, chest pain, and difficulty swallowing. In some cases, it can also lead to more serious problems like ulcers or Barrett's esophagus. According to the American College of Gastroenterology, hiatal hernia syndrome is one of the most common conditions that gastroenterologists treat. The good news is that there are a number of treatment options available to help manage symptoms and prevent complications. Some of these treatments may include lifestyle changes, such as making dietary or exercise modifications, or medications like anti-reflux medications or pain relievers. There may also be surgical options, such as laparoscopic surgery or a procedure called the Nissen fundoplication. In this beginner's quick start guide, you will discover...

Book Description
Hiatal Hernia Syndrome Guide for Beginners Hiatal hernia syndrome is a medical condition that affects the upper gastrointestinal tract and occurs when a portion of the stomach protrudes into the chest cavity through an opening in the diaphragm known as the esophageal hiatus. The diaphragm, a crucial muscular structure separating the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity, plays a pivotal role in respiration. However, in cases of hiatal hernia syndrome, the hiatus becomes enlarged or weakened, allowing the stomach to push through into the thoracic region, leading to various symptoms and potential complications. Hiatal hernias are classified into several types, the most common being the sliding hiatal hernia, where the junction of the esophagus and stomach slides into the chest. Paraesophageal hiatal hernias are less common but more concerning, as they involve a portion of the stomach alongside the esophagus, potentially leading to strangulation and serious complications. Mixed hiatal hernias encompass characteristics of both sliding and paraesophageal hernias. Understanding hiatal hernia syndrome also requires consideration of its prevalence. While the exact number of affected individuals varies, it is estimated that hiatal hernias are relatively common, with older adults and individuals with risk factors being more susceptible. Though not always symptomatic, hiatal hernia syndrome can lead to discomfort and complications, necessitating appropriate diagnosis and management. TO CONTINUE READING, GRAB YOUR COPY NOW!!!

Book Description
The purpose of this book is an examination of the anatomy and motility of the pylorus in view of many divergent views. Anatomical findings of Cunningham, Forssell and Torgersen et al. are discussed and integrated with radiological forms of movement. It appears that the pyloric ring is not a "sphincter" but that it forms part of a more intricate sphincteric mechanism. Evidence for a sphincteric cylinder is presented. Its cyclical activity may open and close the aperture and result in propulsion and retropulsion.The role of gastroscopy, manometry, ultrasonography and radionuclides in pyloric motility and gastric emptying is discussed. Anatomical and functional alterations of the sphincteric mechanism in pathological conditions, e.g. gastritis, gastric ulceration and pyloric carcinoma are described. This may aid in the clarification of the pathogenesis.
