Relationship between Barrett’s esophagus and colonic diseases: a role for colonoscopy in Barrett’s surveillance
2019
Background
Given that risk factors for Barrett’s carcinogenesis are predictive, appropriate management and surveillance of Barrett’s esophagus (BE) may be provided. The presence of colorectal neoplasms (CRNs) is a possible predictor of the development of BE and the progression to esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). We evaluated the relationship between BE or EAC and colonic diseases, including neoplasms and diverticulosis.
