Abstract

The increasing incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma in the western countries has prompted us to establish the South Hungarian Regional Surveillance Group for the Study of Barrett's Esophagus in 2003. In the present report we made an interim analysis of the data collected so far. The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of acidic and biliary reflux in the development of metaplastic and dysplastic mucosal changes in patients with Barrett's esophagus.
