Abstract
Anatomicopathological changes of the esophagus and stomach at different stages of cardiospasm are shown. As the disease develops, macroscopic changes of the esophagus, manifesting themselves in its enlargement, and microscopic changes — perivascular lymphocyte and plasmacyte infiltration and muscle fiber hypertrophy and edema — are noted. During the development of cardiospasm inflammatory-degenerative changes progress in all esophageal layers.
