Abstract

At first sight, the esophagus is a tube that connects the pharynx and the stomach, but its structure and function are more complex. It secretes mucus that helps the food pass, and its wall has multiple layers with different tissues that protect the esophagus and help the bolus move toward the stomach. The human esophagus has four main histological layers: tunica mucosa, tela submucosa, tunica muscularis (or muscularis propria), and adventitia. These layers are similar but not the same in different mammal species.
