Figure 2 Algorithm for the management of esophageal adenocarcinoma complicating Barrett’s esophagus. The management of esophageal adenocarcinoma begins with the endoscopic appearance of the lesion. If the lesion is unapparent, endoscopic ultrasonography should be performed if available. If there is a mass lesion, then CT may be more cost-effective since distant metastases are likely. Earlier-stage lesions need careful staging because they can be managed endoscopically.
