Transpyloric Plane

The transprivate plane (TPP) is an anatomical structure located between the esophagus and the stomach. It is a flat surface that limits the transition between these two organs.

The esophagus is an important anatomical structure because it defines the boundaries between the stomach and esophagus. This area is where food passes from the esophagus to the stomach, and is where the first breakdown of food into smaller parts occurs.

In addition, NWP has implications for medical practice. For example, when performing endoscopic examinations of the stomach, the tranship area is one of the most commonly used areas for biopsy. In addition, the transprivate area is an area where various diseases such as ulcers or gastritis can occur.

In general, the transprivate space plays an important role in the functioning of the digestive system and is the object of attention of many researchers in the field of medicine and biology.

Transpyloric Plane or Transpyloric Plane - (English Transpylorenic Plane, PNA, IPA: "transpilorenic plein") is also sometimes called the supraesophageal region, the plane above the collar, is located on the border of the pharynx (see pharynx) and is connected to the base of the esophagus (see), it is a continuation of the overlying bridge body. The vagus branches of three pairs of cranial nerves pass through the transepillary space: glossopharyngeal, vagus and phrenic, as well as the minor salivary nerve.
