Özet

Background: In this study, the purpose was to determine the anatomical localisations of the cervical oesophagus length, hiatal clamp, and oesophagogastric junction depending on age and gender in patients who undergo oesophagogasMaterials and methods: The images of the patients who underwent EGD between 2018 and 2020 were analysed retrospectively in this study. The distance of the anatomical localisations of the cervical oesophagus length, hiatal clamp, and oesophagogastric junction to the anterior incisors, and the relations of this distance with the demographic characteristics and clinical manifestations of the patients were investigated on the EGD data.Results: A total of 298 patients (174 women, 124 men) were included in the study. The cervical oesophagus length and the distance of the oesophagogastric junction and hiatal clamp localisation of the patients were found to be 15.06 +/- +/- 0.57 cm, 37.51 +/- 2.23 cm and 38.62 +/- 2.23 cm, respectively. It was also found that the mean values of all lengths in males were higher at a statistically significant level than in females (p < 0.001; p < 0.01).Conclusions: Knowing these anatomical localisations may be important in predicting complications that may occur in this region in EGD and planning the precautions to be taken. We also believe that it will guide clinicians in determining hiatal hernia and related deficiencies. (Folia Morphol 2022; 81, 3: 756-765)
