A laparoscopic wedge resection for a submucosal tumor, which is close to the gastroesophageal junction, is technically challenging. This can be a dilemma to both patients and surgeons when the tumor margin involves the gastroesophageal junction because a wedge resection in this situation might result in a deformity of the gastroesophageal junction or an injury to the lower esophageal sphincter,...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Functional constipation and gastroesophageal reflux disease are two major and commonly encountered components of childhood functional gastrointestinal disorders. Epidemiological studies in the adult population support that there is a significant overlap between the different functional disorders of the digestive tract. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the frequency of gastroes...
IS GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE INFLUENCED BY DUODENOGASTRIC REFLUX ? (Abstract): BACKGROUND: It is well known that the gastroesophageal reflux is a frequent disease in medical practice. A lot of factors are involved in its pathogenesis. The aim of our study was to find out if the duodenogastric reflux is one of these factors. We also looked for the pathological conditions associated with du...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Impedance-pH monitoring allows detailed characterization of gastroesophageal reflux and esophageal activity associated with reflux. We assessed the characteristics of nocturnal reflux and esophageal activity preceding and following reflux. METHODS Impedance-pH tracings from 11 healthy subjects and 76 patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease off acid-suppressive therapy we...
Gastroesophageal reflux is the involuntary movement of gastric contents to the esophagus. It is a common disease, occurring in one third of the population in the United States. However, reflux is only considered a disease when it causes frequent or severe symptoms or when it produces injury. About 3–7% of the U.S. population suffers from frank esophageal reflux disease. Most reflux disease is n...
Obesity, gastroesophageal reflux, and smoking have repeatedly been shown to be important and independent risk factors for adenocarcinoma of the esophagus (EAC) and of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJAC). There have been few attempts, however, to quantify the proportion of disease associated with these potentially modifiable factors. The authors have estimated the population attributable fract...
HYPOTHESIS There is an independent association between the different patterns of esophageal acid exposure in gastroesophageal reflux disease and the severity of the disease. DESIGN Case-comparison study. SETTING Department of surgery at a university hospital. PATIENTS A group of 401 patients with increased esophageal acid exposure divided into 4 groups according to the pattern of reflux: ...
extraesophageal manifestations of gastroesophageal reflux disease
Some patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease experience persistent reflux symptoms despite proton pump inhibitor therapy. These symptoms reduce their health-related quality of life. Our aims were to evaluate the relationship between proton pump inhibitor efficacy and health-related quality of life and to evaluate predictive factors affecting treatment response in Japanese patients. Using ...
BACKGROUND Reflux esophagitis is inversely associated with the presence of atrophic gastritis, and endoscopic grading of atrophic gastritis correlates with histological evaluation. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of the endoscopic grade of atrophic gastritis with gastroesophageal and gastropharyngeal reflux. METHODS A total of 627 patients, who underwent endoscopy and...
