Multiple polyposis and adenocarcinoma arising in Barrett's esophagus

R S Wong et al. Ann Thorac Surg. 1996 Jan.

Abstract

Adenomatous polyps of the esophagus are rare in comparison with those of the lower gastrointestinal tract. Like adenomatous colon polyps, they have been associated with malignancy. We describe a case of early adenocarcinoma and multiple polyposis of the esophagus arising in a Barrett's epithelium, treated with surgical resection.
