An irregular Z line refers to an abnormal appearance of the mucosal boundary between the esophagus and the stomach, typically identified during an endoscopy. This line, which usually appears smooth and continuous, may become jagged or irregular in cases of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or Barrett's esophagus.
