Abstract
|
|
|
|
Barrett’s esophagus is precancerous lesion of esophageal adenocarcinoma, but this has been rarely reported in Korea. A 81-year-old man with esophageal adenocarcinoma was admitted to our hospital, and we performed a distal esophagectomy and end-to-end esophagogastrostomy. The microscopic examination of the resected tissue revealed the intestinal metaplasia with goblet cells around the esophageal adenocarcinoma, which indicates this was a Barrett’s esophagus. We report here on this case along with a review of the relevant literature.
