Barrett's esophagus (Barrett S Oesophagus)

Barrett's esophagus (Barrett's Oesophagus)

Barrett's esophagus is a condition in which the normal stratified squamous epithelium lining the esophagus is replaced by columnar epithelium. This occurs due to damage to the mucosa due to gastroesophageal reflux.

In Barrett's esophagus, Barrett's ulcer is common. This ulcer can lead to the development of an epithelial malignant tumor of the esophagus.

Thus, Barrett's esophagus is a precancerous condition that requires regular monitoring and examination for timely detection and treatment of cancer. To prevent the progression of the disease, it is important to treat gastroesophageal reflux and avoid factors that provoke its development.

A condition in which the natural epithelium of the esophageal mucosa is replaced by a stratified columnar epithelium, called Barrett's esophagus or Barrett S Oesophagus, is a fairly rare but serious disease that can lead to the formation of a malignant tumor and even cause death. Barret S Oeophage is a pathological process in which the usual stratified squamous epithelial cells are replaced by other, thicker layers, which is why the scar cannot

Barrett's esophagus

**Barrett's esophagus** is a chronic condition of the lining of the esophagus (the fold that runs from the larynx to the stomach) in which the lower layers become flat or wavy and the upper layers become columnar and tall. This condition can be caused by gastroesophageal reflux, when acid from the stomach flows back into the esophagus after eating. If this happens over a long period of time, it can lead to epithelial malignancies.

There are different types of **Barrett's esophagus**, each with its own characteristics and risk factors. One of the most common types is **symptomatic** **Barrett's carcinoma**, which means that the patient does not experience any symptoms while having Barrett's esophagus.
