The GE junction is where the esophagus (tube that carries food from the throat to the stomach) meets the stomach. Stomach cancers tend to develop slowly. Pre-cancerous changes often occur in the inner lining (mucosa) of the stomach. These early changes rarely cause symptoms and therefore often go undetected.
Oesophageal motility disorder, or oesophageal dysmotility, is a condition in which the oesophagus doesn't work normally and fails to properly deliver liquids and food from the mouth to the stomach. It can be caused by oesophageal spasms or by the failure of the esophageal muscles to contract.

Cancer arising from an esophageal diverticulum is mainly found at an advanced stage because of delayed diagnosis. The absence of muscularis propia may lead to early invasion. Thus, cancers within an esophageal diverticulum are considered to be at a more advanced stage than similar cancers arising elsewhere.
Diverticulum. Diverticulitis happens when the diverticulum become inflamed. Particles of stool or undigested food become stuck in these pouches.
