DESIGN Retrospective case series. SETTING University tertiary referral center. PATIENTS Sixty-five consecutive patients with a 2-cm or shorter length of endoscopically visible CLE.

متن کاملHigh oesophageal stricture with hiatal hernia and a lower oesophagus lined by columnar epithelium.
A 23-year-old man with a six months' history of dysphagia was found to have hiatus hernia with reflux and a stricture of the mid-oesophagus. Death from unrelated causes permitted detailed histological examination. This showed a high squamo-columnar junction with ulceration confined to the squamous epithelium immediately above the junction. The columnar epithelium of the lower oesophagus was lar...
متن کاملDistribution and significance of epithelial types in columnar-lined esophagus.
An abnormal columnar-lined esophagus (CLE) is characterized by the presence of cardiac mucosa (CM) oxynto-cardiac mucosa (OCM), and intestinal metaplastic epithelium (IM) between gastric oxyntic mucosa and esophageal squamous epithelium. Thirty-two patients with CLE measuring 2-16 cm long had 5-37 biopsies per patient that showed CM, OCM, or IM for a total of 424 biopsies. Detailed mapping of t...

متن کاملThe columnar-lined mucosa in the distal esophagus. A preliminary study in baboons.
BACKGROUND For anatomists, the cardia is a portion of the stomach. However, at the histological level, the cardiac mucosa, described as columnar-lined with mucus-producing glands (CLMMG), is for some pathologists part of the stomach (already present at birth) and for others a metaplastic change of the esophagus induced by gastroesophageal reflux (GER). MATERIALS AND METHODS The distal esophag...
