Argon Plasma Coagulation in Barrett’s Esophagus: The Most Widely Available Technique

Argon plasma coagulation (APC) is the most widely available technique for ablation of Barrett’s esophagus. When the argon plasma is applied, thermal injury to the epithelium results. The depth of injury is the function of the voltage, the gas flow, and the pressure applied to the probe. A series of 32 patients with high-grade dysplasia were treated with APC with 34 months of follow-up. Dysplasia

Optimal management of Barrett’s esophagus: pharmacologic, endoscopic, and surgical interventions

Esophageal adenocarcinoma and its precursor, Barrett's esophagus, are rapidly rising in incidence. This review serves to highlight the role of pharmacologic, endoscopic, and surgical intervention in the management of Barrett's esophagus, which requires acid suppression and endoscopic assessment. Treatment with a proton pump inhibitor may decrease acid exposure and delay the progression to dyspl...

A cost-utility analysis of ablative therapy for Barrett's esophagus.

BACKGROUND & AIMS Recommendations for patients with Barrett's esophagus (BE) include endoscopic surveillance with esophagectomy for early-stage cancer, although new technologies to ablate dysplasia and metaplasia are available. This study compares the cost utility of ablation with that of endoscopic surveillance strategies. METHODS A decision analysis model was created to examine a population...

The future of endoscopic treatment of early Barrett neoplasia: the endoscopist's view.

The field of Barrett’s esophagus ablation has come a long way since the original pioneering work of Brandt and Berenson in the early 1990s [1, 2]. In fact, ablation is now viewed as a legiti− mate first−line treatment option for healthy pa− tients with high grade dysplasia and early adeno− carcinoma, based on studies performed to date. Furthermore, the notion of complete ablation of Barrett’s e...

Nonsurgical Management of Esophageal Cancer

In the recent past, the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinomas has risen dramatically, whereas the incidence of squamous cell carcinomas has remained relatively steady in the United States (Holmes & Vaughan, 2007). Esophageal adenocarcinoma arises from Barrett’s esophagus with an estimated incidence rate of 0.4-0.7 per 100-patients/year. (Sharma et al., 2004; Thomas et al., 2007). Barrett’s es...
