Esophagus: Normal Lower Esophageal and Squamo-
columnar Junction Mucosae
Esophagus: Normal Squamous Epithelium
Esophagus: Normal Squamo-columnar Junction
Esophagitis (Inflammation and Reactive Epithelial
Changes of the Esophageal Mucosa) Has Many Causes
Reflux Esophagitis is the Culmination of Gastro-
Esophageal Reflux-Induced Changes in Epithelial Cell
Turnover
Esophagus: G-E Reflux - Changes in Epithelium and
Vascular Papillae
Esophagus: G-E Reflux - Defenses Against Reflux-
induced Injury
Esophagus: G-E Reflux - Symptoms and Endoscopic Findings in Reflux are NOT
Predictive of Biopsy Findings
Esophagus: G-E Reflux - Heightened Epithelial
Turnover in G-E Reflux is Shown by Increased Epithelial Tritiated Thymidine Labeling
Esophagus: G-E Reflux - Reflux-induced Epithelial
Change Is a Consequence Of Increased Cell Turnover
Acute (Neutrophilic) Inflammation and Erosion In Severe Reflux Esophagitis
Severe Epithelial Reactive Changes with Eosinophils
(EOS) in Gastroesophageal Reflux
Sequelae Of Prolonged G-E Reflux
Barrett’s Esophagus: Development And Anatomic
Relationships
Endoscopic Landmarks In The GEJ Region: Normal Versus Barrett’s (Columnar-lined)
Esophagus With Location Of Lower Esophageal Sphincter
(LES)
Requirements For Diagnosis Of Barrett’s Esophagus
Barrett’s Esophagus: Gross Appearance
Barrett’s Esophagus Should Be Suspected And Confirmed By Biopsy When The Squamo-
columnar Junction Is Displaced Or Highly Irregular
Barrett’s Mucosa (BM) With Submucosal Esophageal
Gland (SMEG) Below Muscularis Mucosae (MM)
Barrett’s Mucosa: Distinctive (Specialized) Type
