GERD
  1. Anatomy of esophagus
    1. Histology
        1. Blood supply
          1. Arteries
            1. Cervical part by Inferior thyroid
              1. Thoracic part by Descending aorta
                1. Abdominal part by Left gastric and Left Inferior Phrenic arteries
                2. Veins
                  1. Abdominal: Left gastric of potral system + inf. venacava and inf. hemiazygos
                    1. Cervical part- Inferior thyroid vein
                      1. Thoracic part- Azygos and hemiazygos
                    2. Innervation

                      2. Phases of swallowing
                        1. Causes of dysphagia
                          1. Achalasia.  Diffuse spasm. Esophageal stricture.  Esophageal tumors.  Foreign bodies.  Esophageal ring.  Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).  Eosinophilic esophagitis.  Radiation therapy.
                          2. Causes of Chest discomfort
                            1. Myocardial infarction Angina , Pleuritis Pneumonia , rib fracture Shingles, Peptic ulcers, GERD
                            2. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus. This acid reflux can irritate the lining of the esophagus
