Barrett's esophagus, reflux esophagitis, and eosinophilic esophagitis [PDF]

open access: possibleGastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2012
Many new and exciting endoscopy-related studies on Barrett’s esophagus, reflux esophagitis, and eosinophilic esophagitis were presented during the 2012 Digestive Disease Week (DDW; 19 – 22 May, San Diego, California, USA). Endoscopic research in Barrett’s esophagus mainly focused on surveillance, detection, and ablation therapy, while clinical studies ...

Lower Esophageal Sphincter in Reflux Esophagitis

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1976
Lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP) was studied by intraluminal perfusion-manometry in the resting state and after graded intravenous doses of pentagastrin in 12 healthy subjects and 27 patients with reflux esophagitis. These patients were classified as having ulcerative (11) or non-ulcerative esophagitis (16) by histological examination and ...

Esophageal Stricture Secondary to Reflux Esophagitis

Archives of Surgery, 1975
Since 1966 we have used esophageal dilation plus Nissen fundoplication as our sole method of treating esophageal strictures caused by reflux esophagitis. Twenty-six patients were treated for esophageal strictures. Dysphagia, vomiting, and weight loss were the main complaints.

Esophageal biopsy in the diagnosis of reflux esophagitis

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1981
Esophagitis in infancy and childhood produces characteristic histologic changes in the mucosa and lamina propria of the distal esophagus. The use of biopsy in addition to endoscopic evaluation considerably enhances the accuracy of the diagnosis of esophagitis, particularly when the degree of inflammatory change is mild.

Esophageal reflux

Postgraduate Medicine, 1977
Diagnosis of esophageal reflux often can be made on the basis of the characteristic symptoms of heartburn and regurgitation. When the picture is not so typical, acid reflux testing and esophageal biopsy appear to be the best indicators of esophageal reflux. Medical management is directed toward preventing reflux, neutralizing refluxed gastric contents,

The efficacy of i-SCAN for detecting reflux esophagitis: a prospective randomized controlled trial.

Diseases of the esophagus, 2013
New imaging technologies have been applied in endoscopy to improve the detection and differentiation of subtle mucosal changes using a digital contrast method. Among them, i-SCAN technology is the most recently developed image-enhancing technology.

Reflux Esophagitis: Overview

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1995
Reflux eosophagitis is one of the most common chronic disorders in humans. While ultimately due to contact of esophageal epithelium with gastric acid and pepsin, the pathogenesis of the condition remains poorly understood. In the present manuscript, some key clinical aspects of this condition are briefly reviewed, including pathogenesis, complications,

Duodenogastro-Esophageal Reflux in Children with Refractory Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease

The Journal of Pediatrics, 2007
To determine the role of duodenogastro-esophageal reflux (DGER) in the pathogenesis of refractory gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) in children.Twenty-two patients (12 boys, mean age, 13.2 years) with GERD symptoms that persisted on omeprazole (1 mg/kg) underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and barium x-ray, 24-hour pH and DGER (Bilitec ...

Hypersensitivity to acid is associated with impaired esophageal mucosal integrity in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease with and without esophagitis.

American Journal of Physiology - Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, 2014
Increased esophageal sensitivity and impaired mucosal integrity have both been described in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease, but the relationship between hypersensitivity and mucosal integrity is unclear. The aim of the present study was to
