Barrett's esophagus is an acquired condition resulting from severe esophageal mucosal injury. It still remains unclear why some patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease develop Barrett's esophagus whereas others do not. The diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus is established if the squamocolumnar junction is displaced proximal to the gastroesophageal ...

There continues to be great interest in Barrett esophagus, the premalignant lesion for adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and the esophagogastric junction. There were several publications this past year related to the epidemiology, pathogenesis, new methods for detection, biomarkers for stratifying patients by risk, and the treatment of patients with ...

The importance of an in-depth understanding about Barrett esophagus is ultimately to decrease the mortality and morbidity from esophageal adenocarcinoma cancer by early detection of metaplasia and dysplasia and appropriate therapy. This review summarizes several publications in the past year related to the epidemiology, pathogenesis, screening and ...

AbstractBarrett's esophagus is an acquired metaplastic abnormality in which the normal stratified squamous epithelium lining of the esophagus is replaced by an intestinal‐like columnar epithelium. While in itself a benign and asymptomatic disorder, the clinical importance of this relatively common condition relates to its role as a precursor lesion to ...

The columnar replacement of squamous epithelium in the lower esophagus is the result of gastroesophageal reflux. Whether the squamous cells are replaced or undergo metaplasia is still conjectural. This neoepithelium is unstable in the presence of continued reflux and prone to complications of stricture, ulceration, and adenocarcinoma.

Barrett's esophagus denotes the presence of columnar epithelium in the esophagus instead of the usual stratified squamous epithelium. Barrett's esophagus had been thought to represent a mediastinal extension of the stomach in patients with a congenital short esophagus.

Although there are many unanswered questions with Barrett esophagus, we can safely say that the incidence is increasing, chemoprevention strategies for the prevention of Barrett metaplasia and its progression to adenocarcinoma may be in the offing, surveillance should be considered for all patients who are discovered to have Barrett esophagus, RFA is ...

Barrett's esophagus (BE) is the most important and recognizable precursor lesion for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), which is the one of the fastest-growing cancers in the Western world (600 % in the U.S. in the last 40 years), and therefore it is critical to manage the risk of cancer present in BE.

Barrett esophagus is the term describing the presence of an abnormal columnar epithelium in a portion of the esophagus. We have treated 19 patients within the past three years, representing almost 20% of all our esophageal experience; This one pathologic entity has presented as several different clinical pictures: benign stricture, peptic ulceration of

Intestinal metaplasia in Barrett's esophagus is a major risk factor for esophageal adenocarcinoma, a tumor whose incidence rate has more than tripled in the United States over the past 2 decades. Studies have identified a number of molecular abnormalities that may be involved in the progression from dysplasia to cancer in Barrett's esophagus, including
