BARRETT'S ESOPHAGUS


Illustration of Barrett’s esophagus, an illness characterized by a modification of the cells that cover the inner base of the esophagus, above the junction between the stomach and esophagus (oesophago-gastric or cardioesophageal junction). This illness can potentially lead to complications with a stenosis (shrinking) of the esophagus, a chronic ulcer and transformation into malignant cancer.
