The esophagus has 3 constrictions in its vertical course, as follows:
The first constriction is at 15 cm from the upper incisor teeth, where the esophagus commences at the cricopharyngeal sphincter; this is the narrowest portion of the esophagus and approximately corresponds to the sixth cervical vertebra
The second constriction is at 23 cm from the upper incisor teeth, where it is crossed by the aortic arch and left main bronchus
The third constriction is at 40 cm from the upper incisor teeth, where it pierces the diaphragm; the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) is situated at this level[1, 2,
