[Medio-thoracic esophageal stenosis, produced by pseudotumoral ulcer].

A non-specific esophagitis developed in a young male, apparently determined by heavy abuse of alcohol. Shortly after, a stenotic pseudo-tumoral mediothoracic esophageal lesion was diagnosed. Although there was a high index of suspicion regarding the caustic origin of the lesion, cancer could not be excluded using current diagnostic methods. Temporary feeding jejunostomy was followed by uneventful total esophagectomy and gastric pull-up. Pathologic examination of the resected specimen was a surprise, revealing an esophageal ulcer based on massive severe non-specific esophagitis. Retrospectively, the ulcer was judged as primitive or idiopathic. We discuss some etiopathogenic aspects of common secondary esophageal ulcers (related or not to reflux disease), in contrast with idiopathic esophageal ulcers.

Morphological findings in peptic esophageal stenosis with Barrett's ulcer in children.

The morphological findings in three resected specimens of Barrett's ulcer in children are discussed. Nearly identical morphologic changes are found in all cases, even in adults. This pathologic condition is understood as the third or fourth stage of reflux esophagitis. Perforation or even malignant degeneration is described in these cases. Therefore mainly all therapeutic aims must be to prevent these stages.
