Endoscopic features of esophageal adenocarcinoma derived from short-segment versus long-segment Barrett's esophagus.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aim

The study aims to clarify the endoscopic features and clinicopathological differences in superficial Barret's esophageal adenocarcinoma (s-BEA) derived from short-segment Barrett's esophagus (SSBE) and long-segment Barrett's esophagus (LSBE).

Methods

We reviewed data of 130 patients (141 lesions) with pathologically confirmed s-BEA (SSBE: 95 patients and 95 lesions; LSBE: 35 patients and 46 lesions). We analyzed endoscopic and clinicopathological features of s-BEA in patients with SSBE and LSBE.

Results

The distribution of lesions according to macroscopic findings were as follows (s-BEA in SSBE vs LSBE): flat type (0-IIb), 3.2% (3/95) vs 32.6% (15/46) (P < 0.001); accompanied type 0-IIb, 2.1% (2/95) vs 21.7% (10/46) (P < 0.001); and complex type (0-
