dc.description.abstract | Background: Barrett’s esophagus (BE) is an acquired disease
defined by the presence of intestinal metaplasia with goblet cells in
the distal esophagus. The prevalence of BE has increased dramati
cally over the last years.
Aims: The primary aims of the study were to analyze the char
acteristics of BE and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) in a Span
ish health district during a follow-up period.
Methodology: Sociodemographic factors, alcohol consump
tion and cigarette smoking were analyzed. We also studied the
histological behavior and cause of death in each group.
Results: In the present study 430 patients were included, 338
with BE and 92 with EAC. Incidence rates have risen from 2.25
and 1.25 per 100,000 inhabitants in 1996 to 6.5 and 4.75 per
100,000 in 2011, respectively. In the EAC group, male gender,
age and alcohol consumption were higher in comparison to the BE
group, and the overall survival was 23 months. In the BE group,
the main causes of death were non-esophageal cancer and cardio
vascular disease.
Conclusions: The incidence and prevalence rates of AEC and
BE have risen over the past years. Risk factors for these conditions
were male gender, age and alcohol consumption. Long BE (> 3 cm)
is involved in dysplasia progression. AEC diagnosis mainly occurs
after neoplasia is detected and, in a few cases, due to a previous
BE. Cardiovascular diseases and non-esophageal cancers have been
found to be the main cause of death in BE patients. | es |
