4. Fig 3
Resected esophagus that has been incised longitudinally, exposing the mucosal surface. The distal esophagus is marked with “D” and the fistula site is marked with “F.” The white mucosa at the superior aspect of the esophagus is squamous mucosa, the area adjacent to the fistula has severe mucosal damage, and the distal esophagus has salmon pink mucosa characteristic of Barrett’s esophagus.
