Barrett's esophagus and risk of esophageal adenocarcinoma: A retrospective analysis

Conclusion Our study found that BE-associated EAC mostly occurred in older men. In the group with BE-associated EAC, the majority of patients were discovered due to alarm symptoms, at the same time as esophageal adenocarcinoma had already developed. Further prospective study is needed to stratify the risk of disease progression in BE patients.
