DiseasesDB ICD10 ICD9 ICDO OMIM MedlinePlus eMedicineSubj eMedicineTopic MeshID D004935 Esophageal diseases can derive from congenital conditions, or they can be acquired later in life. Many people experience a burning sensation in their chest occasionally, caused by stomach acids GERD refluxing into the esophagus , normally called heartburn. Extended exposure to heartburn may erode the lining of the esophagus, leading potentially to Barrett s esophagus which is associated an increased risk of adenocarcinoma most commonly found in the distal one third of the esophagus. Some people also experience a sensation known as globus esophagus , where it feels as if a ball is lodged in the lower part of the esophagus.

The shell is fairly uniform in color and is typically a pastel to bright orange, although white, pastel pink and yellow forms exist. There are 7 to 9 body whorls after the nuclear whorls, each whorl bearing three prominently protruding varices that are often referred to as wings, and six knobs evenly spaced so that there are two knobs between each varix. The shell has a scaley microsculpture and prominent spiral cords which give the shell a lacey appearance, and the prominent wings are wavy and smoother than the whorls. The siphonal canal also has a prominent wing similar to the varices after which the siphonal canal has a sharp recurved bend. The aperture is subovate and the operculum is reddish brown. Adult size is from 35 mm to 80 mm in length. Larger shells have more prominent wings and have been loosely compared to tropical flowers. ref Mure ... more details

With approximately 1,600 living species the Muricidae represent almost 10 of the Neogastropoda . Additionally, 1,200 fossil species have been recognised Merle et al. 2011 . There are numerous subfamilies, although experts disagree about the subfamily divisions. Many muricids have unusual shells which are considered attractive by seashell shell collectors and by interior designers. Shell description Muricid shells are variably shaped, generally with a raised spire and strong sculpture with spiral ridges and often axial Varix mollusc varices typically three or more varices on each Whorl mollusc whorl , also frequently bearing spines, tubercles or blade like processes. Periostracum is absent in this family. The aperture is variable in shape, may be ovate to more or less contracted, with a well marked anterior siphonal canal that may be very long. The shell s outer lip is often denticulate inside, sometimes with a tooth like process on its margin. The columella is smoothish to weakly ridged. The Operculum gastropod operculum is corneous, of variable thickness, with the nucleus near the anterior end or at about midlength of the outer margin. Many muricids have episodic growth, which means that the shell grows in spurts, remaining the same size for a while during which time the Varix mollusc varix develops before rapidly growing to the next size stage. The result is the series of above mentioned varices on each Whorl mollusc whorl . Image Eggs capsules fr ... more details
