thickening of the wall of the esophagus
Introduction
Introduction Thickening of the esophageal wall is the manifestation of the diverticulum in the esophageal wall, and the diverticulum in the esophageal wall (a rare benign lesion is characterized by a diffuse distribution of 1 to 3 mm of exoskeleton of the esophageal wall. X-ray examination showed thickening of the local esophageal wall, uneven internal cavity, and narrow esophageal lumen.
Cause

After esophageal inflammation, the mucosal glands are destroyed and expanded.

Laboratory inspection:
In vivo histopathological examination showed only mild inflammatory changes in the superficial tissue.
Other auxiliary inspections:
1. X-ray examination: sometimes can not find the pseudo-diverticulum, sputum angiography can be found in the esophageal cavity, there are many long-necked flask-shaped or small button-shaped small pouches, ranging from 1 to 5mm in size, showing scattered or limited Distribution, the esophagus is obviously narrow, and there are more false diverticulum.
2. Endoscopy: The esophagus is chronically inflammatory, and the opening of the pseudo-diverticulum is seen in very few patients.
3. CT scan: difficult to display, combined with X-ray examination, see the local esophageal wall thickening, the internal cavity is uneven, the esophageal lumen can be narrow.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
It can be differentiated from esophageal wall fibrosis.
Esophageal wall fibrosis refers to chronic recurrent lesions of esophagitis that can cause full-thickness destruction and fibrosis of the esophagus, resulting in esophageal stricture.
