Abstract:
Reflux oesophagitis does not represent only an isolated collection of symptoms affecting the patients' quality of life but the risk of serious complications including the benign stenosis and carcinoma of oesophagus, too. Barrett's oesophagus (BO) has the highest risk for development of the neoplasia due to reflux oesophagitis.
