Simon's Esophagus

I've been meaning to put this together for a while now.  I hope it helps with understanding Simon's complex esophageal issues.


 This is what a normal esophagus should look like. 

The following pictures are from Simon's modified barium swallows (esophagrams)--he is lying on an exam table and drinks a liquid called barium, which allows for illumination of the esophagus, and a machine over him takes the pictures.
