Abstract

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is multifactorial in etiology and is characterized by movement of acid and other noxious substances from the stomach into the esophagus. The most severe histologic consequence of chronic gastroesophgeal reflux is Barrett's esophagus, which has been considered as a premalignant condition often leading to the formation of adenocarcinoma of esophagus.(omitted)
