Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Barrett's oesophagus is a precancerous condition.
  • It arises from chronic oesophagogastric reflux.
  • Intestinal metaplasia above the oeso-gastric junction is diagnostic.

Purpose:

  • To outline diagnostic criteria for Barrett's oesophagus.
  • To discuss current management strategies.
  • To explore potential therapeutic interventions.

Summary:

  • Diagnosis relies on endoscopy and histology confirming intestinal metaplasia.
  • Endoscopic surveillance is effective for individual patient monitoring.
  • Therapeutic options include protecting the oesophagus from refluxate or ablating metaplastic mucosa.

Impact:

  • Early detection and management can reduce adenocarcinoma risk.
  • Ablation therapies aim to restore normal oesophageal mucosa.
  • Understanding reflux mechanisms is key to prevention.
