Abstract
- Esophageal adenocarcinoma develop in 0.5~0.8% of Barrett's esophagus. Although the incidence of adenocarcinoma is low, annual endoscopic surveillance is needed because of poor outcome. Recently endoscopic mucosal resection is increasingly being used in the management of early esophageal cancer because of low morbidity and mortality rates. Herein, we report a case of high grade dysplasia arising from Barrett's esophagus treated with endoscopic mucosal resection and brief review of literatures.
