Gastro-esophageal reflux disease

Anatomic radiographic landmarks of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES).

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) Gastroesophageal reflux is a normal physiologic phenomenon experienced intermittently by most people, particularly after a meal. Gastroesophageal reflux Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when the amount of gastric juice that refluxes into the esophagus exceeds the normal limit, causing symptoms with or without associated esophageal mucosal injury. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)

Definition American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) – Symptoms OR mucosal damage produced by the abnormal reflux of gastric contents into the esophagus – Often chronic and relapsing – May see complications of GERD in patients who lack typical symptoms

Physiologic vs Pathologic Physiologic GERD – Postprandial – Short lived – Asymptomatic – No nocturnal symptomes Pathologic GERD – Symptoms – Mucosal injury – Nocturnal symptomes

Esophagitis is rarely caused by agents other than reflux Acute esophagitis may be caused by: or physical agents : irradiation and by ingestion of caustic agent or physical agents : irradiation and by ingestion of caustic agent infective agents: Bacterial infection is very rare, but fungal infection (mainly by Candida albicans) is common Viral infections of the esophagus (particularly by herpes simplex and cytomegalovirus) are seen in AIDS patient infective agents: Bacterial infection is very rare, but fungal infection (mainly by Candida albicans) is common Viral infections of the esophagus (particularly by herpes simplex and cytomegalovirus) are seen in AIDS patient

Epidemiology About 44% of the US adult population have heartburn at least once a month 14% of Americans have symptoms weekly 7% have symptoms daily

GERD Pathophysiology Abnormal lower esophageal sphincter or Increase abdominal pressure

GERD Pathophysiology A.Abnormal lower esophageal sphincter 1.Functional (frequent transient LES relaxation) 2.Mechanical (hypotensive LES) 3.Foods (eg, coffee, alcohol, smoking) 4.Medications (eg, calcium channel blockers), 5.Location hiatal herniahiatal hernia or B. Increase abdominal pressure The most common cause of (GERD). decrease the pressure of the LES. Obesity Pregnancy Increased gastric volume

Pathophysiology Primary barrier to gastroesophageal reflux is the lower esophageal sphincter LES normally works in conjunction with the diaphragm If barrier disrupted, acid goes from stomach to esophagus

Clinical Manisfestations Most common symptoms – Heartburn—retrosternal burning discomfort – Regurgitation—effortless return of gastric contents into the pharynx without nausea, retching, or abdominal contractions Atypical symptoms….coughing, chest pain, and wheezing.

Diagnostic Evaluation – If classic symptoms of heartburn and regurgitation exist in the absence of “alarm symptoms” the diagnosis of GERD can be made clinically and treatment can be initiated

Esophagogastrodudenoscopy Endoscopy (with biopsy if needed) – In patients with alarm signs/symptoms – Those who fail a medication trial – Those who require long-term tx

pH 24-hour pH monitoring – Accepted standard for establishing or excluding presence of GERD for those patients who do not have mucosal changes – Trans-nasal catheter or a wireless capsule shaped device

Complications Erosive esophagitis Stricture Barrett’s esophagus

Complications Erosive esophagitis – Responsible for 40-60% of GERD symptoms – Severity of symptoms often fail to match severity of erosive esophagitis

Esophagitis basal zone hyperplasia, Elongation of lamina propria papillae Eosinophils and neutrophils

Complications Esophageal stricture – Result of healing of erosive esophagitis – May need dilation

Complications Barrett’s Esophagus – Intestinal metaplasia of the esophagus – Associated with the development of adenocarcinoma 8-15%

Complications Barrett’s Esophagus – Acid damages lining of esophagus and causes chronic esophagitis – Damaged area heals in a metaplastic process and abnormal columnar cells replace squamous cells – This specialized intestinal metaplasia can progress to dysplasia and adenocarcinoma Many patients with Barrett’s are asymptomatic

Treatment H 2 receptor Blockers Proton pump inhibitors Antireflux surgery

Summary

The most common malignant tumors of the esophagus are squamous carcinomas and adenocarcinomas The prognosis for both types of carcinoma is poor

Squamous carcinomas are most common in the middle and lower esophagus. They mostly develop in men who are heavy alcohol drinkers or heavy smokers, and may be preceded by epithelial dysplastic change.

Pathogenesis of GERD 1. impaired lower esophageal sphincter 2. hypersecretion of acid 3. decreased acid clearance resulting from impaired peristalsis or abnormal saliva production 4. delayed gastric emptying or duodenogastric reflux of bile salts and pancreatic enzymes.
