Patients with Barrett's esophagus are recognized as having a high risk of
development of adenocarcinoma. Although endoscopic surveillance of these
patients is commonly practiced, its benefits have not been proved. This
study was undertaken to examine the effect of endoscopic surveillance on
the stage of resected carcinoma arising in Barrett's esophagus and the
effect on postoperative survival. Between 1973 and 1991, 77 patients with
adenocarcinoma were seen by us, and 19 of them were under endoscopic
surveillance. The 19 patients underwent endoscopic biopsies at 1-month to
4-year intervals (median 6 months). All but one patient underwent
esophagogastrectomy when severe dysplasia or invasive carcinoma was
detected. The stages of the resected carcinomas in the group under
surveillance compared with the group not under surveillance were
significantly different, 58% of the patients under surveillance having
stages 0 and I disease and 21% having stage III disease compared with 17%
of the patients not under surveillance having stages 0 and I disease and
47% having stage III disease (p = 0.006). The 5-year actuarial survival of
patients undergoing routine surveillance was 62% and of patients not under
surveillance, 20% (p = 0.007). Endoscopic surveillance of patients with
benign Barrett's esophagus permits detection of carcinoma at an early stage
and improves long-term survival after resection for severe dysplasia and
invasive carcinoma.
