There are three types of imaging: CT, esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), and pathologic pictures. (a) In the CT scan, the esophagus is shown to be highly dilated (white arrows), and it contains both liquid and blood components (white arrowhead). (b) the electrogram reveals several ulcers, both large and small, that are covered in white plaques. (c, d) the esophageal mucosa has been severely destroyed, and lymphocyte invasion has occurred, resulting in the appearance of infiltrated mycelium (black arrows). (e) EGD reveals that the esophageal ulcers have reextravasated and are leaking. (f) After the treatments, the esophageal ulcers are shown to have improved on the EGD.
