Heterotopic gastric mucosa of the esophagus (HGMPE), is an island of ectopic gastric mucosa that is found in the proximal esophagus
The early reported cases of Barrett's esophagus in infants and children were based upon demonstration of columnar epithelium in a few biopsies that did not document the presence of specialized, meta-plastic epithelium, which is currently considered essential for the diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus
