A schematic cross-section of the distal esophagus and proximal stomach shows a markedly narrowed lower esophageal sphincter (LES) at the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) with a dilated, food-retaining esophageal lumen above. In anatomy and pathology of the gastrointestinal system, this organ-level illustration depicts impaired relaxation and outflow obstruction characteristic of achalasia, affecting the thoracic esophagus as it enters the upper abdomen. The structure is an anatomical organ (esophagus) within the digestive tract of Homo sapiens (human), whose normal role is peristaltic propulsion of ingested bolus into the stomach.
