Abstract

Barrett’s esophagus (BE) is a well-recognized risk factor for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). Endoscopic eradication prevents development of EAC. Presently, radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is the most common eradication therapy. While recent studies have suggested that balloon cryotherapy is non-inferior to RFA in the management of dysplastic BE, limited data exists regarding longitudinal outcomes of spray liquid nitrogen cryotherapy (SLNC) compared to RFA. This study aims to bridge a knowledge gap assessing the number of sessions needed to successfully eradicate dysplastic BE and outcomes for those who failed initial treatment modality.
