cardias. 1  1: the opening of the esophagus into the stomach. 2  2: the part of the stomach adjoining the cardia.
The esophagus connects to the stomach at a small region called the cardia. The cardia is a narrow, tube-like region that opens up into the wider regions of the stomach. Within the cardia is the lower esophageal sphincter, a band of muscle tissue that contracts to hold food and acid inside of the stomach. The cardia empties into the body of the stomach, which forms the central and largest region of the stomach. Superior to the body is a dome shaped region known as the fundus.
