(Esophagus. 789. The pharynx, with a portion of the oesophagus laid open, to show a stric- ture at the beginning of that canal. 790. A similar preparation, but the constriction is in a greater degree. 791. A similar preparation, with the constriction still greater. 792. An oesophagus with a stricture of great extent, not attended with ulceration. Its coats are very much thickened and indurated, and upon the cut sur- face may be observed many white transverse lines formed by the cellular membrane interposed between the thickened muscular fibres. This pre- paration may be considered as a good example of scirrhus in muscular parts. 793. The pharynx and oesophagus laid open to show stricture and ulceration. [The thyroid gland is enlarged.] 794. A similar preparation, with thickening and ulceration of the pharynx and oesophagus. [The thyroid gland is enlarged; and the ulceration has extended through the coats of the pharynx behind the thyroid gland, which is in some degree affected by it. A bristle marks the course of the ulcer.] 795. The oesophagus laid open to show extensive ulceration. 796. The oesophagus extensively ulcerated. 797.
