Abstract
The article presents an analysis of the results of video capsule endoscopy (VCE) of the esophagus, stomach and elements of the esophageal-gastric junction (EGJ) in 23 patients without pathology of the upper gastrointestinal tract (conditionally healthy). It was concluded that VCE can be used as a method for studying the elements of the EGJ: the opening of the esophagealgastric junction in closed and open states, the shape of the Z-line and the figures that it forms, as well as the distance at which the Z-line is located in relation to the cardia is normal. VCE is characterized by a study in physiological conditions without the influence of mechanical factors that arise when performing traditional esophagogastroscopy.
