Popis: | Barrett's esophagus is the transformation of the normal squamous epithelium in the distal esophagus into columnar epithelium with intestinal metaplasia. Barrett's esophagus generally develops as a result of chronic mucosal irritation due to gastroesophageal reflux. Although Barrett's esophagus is usually seen over the age of 50, it can also be seen at younger ages. In our case, it was seen in a 34-year-old male patient. The patient applied to the general surgery outpatient clinic with complaints of swelling in the stomach, pain and watering in the mouth. When endoscopy is performed; the cervical and thoracic esophageal mucosa appeared normal, and the Z line was 40 cm distally. The esophageal mucosa had a hyperemic appearance. Multiple biopsies were taken from these areas. In histopathological evaluation, special columnar epithelium, mucin-filled cytoplasm, goblet cells (intestinal metaplasia) were observed. Goblet cells were positively stained by PAS/Alcian Blue and Mucincarmine histochemical staining. |
