Short segment Barrett's esophagus (SSBE) is a frequent finding in patients having endoscopy, but its clinical significance is not fully understood. With the rising incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma, a potential role of SSBE has been suggested. Biopsy of such lesions may have to be done when seen on endoscopy.
短节段巴雷特食管(SSBE)在内镜检查患者中很常见,但其临床意义尚未完全明确。随着食管腺癌发病率的上升,已有人提出SSBE的潜在作用。在内镜检查中发现此类病变时可能必须进行活检。
