I had a upper endoscopy 3 days ago and was sent a procedure report,
There was esophageal mucosa changes secondary to short segment Barrett's disease. The
changes involved the mucosa extending to the Z-line.There was salmon colored mucosa
present. The maximum longitudinal extent of these esophageal mucosal changes was .
cm in length.The mucosa was biopsied for histology.
Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Digestive Health Support Group.
Is there anything about this report I should be worried about?
Normally you wouldn't worry too much about the color of the mucosa but with Barrettes you need annual endoscopies.
My mucosa has changed to an irregular patchy dark tan which is abnormal because it should be nice and pink. However my pathology report came back good.
Praying for great results
