achalasia

infectious esophagitis

immunocompromised: HIV, DM


most common: candida, only surface with NO inflammation


herpes


CMV: giant cells

pill induced esophageal injury

doxycycline


emepronium bromide: vasospasm


KCl


quinidine


Fe Sulphate


NSAID


lye

bullous pemphigoid

usually demonstrate immunoglobulin G (IgG) and complement C3 deposition in a linear band at the dermal-epidermal junction, with IgG in salt-split skin found on the blister roof (epidermal side of split skin).



may be happening for years


distal eso
long term GERD

distal eso


long term GERD

barrett esophagus


metaplastic columnar epithelium- intestinal metaplasia/goblet cells replace squamous epithelium in distal esophagus



increased risk of adenocarcinoma- have to watch, depending on dysplasia level

how do you tx high grade dysplastic Barrett Esophagus?

ablation therapy: radiofrequency ablation RFA, photodynamic therapty PDT, or cryotherapy



endoscopic mucosal resection



esophagectomy



continued surveillance

what carcinomas happen in eso

squamous cell carcinoma: m/c in world



adenocarcinoma most from Barrett eso, m/c in USA now (obesity related cancer)

esophageal adenocarcinoma


related factors

obesity-related GERD and Barrett eso


tobacco use


lower H. pylori infxn??

dysphagia


gradual obstruction


aspiration pneumonia- TE fistula

squamous cell carcinoma



usually middle 1/3


survival very poor

squamous carcinoma


risk factors

China Iran (hot tea) south africa


male>female


balck>white


drinking and smoking


dietary: contamination of carcinogens


genetic: SOX2


lye stricture, achalasia


HPV

different versions of squamous Ca

keratin swirls


fungating

innervation of eso

motor: vagus


parasymp: vagus


symp: all sorts


ENS

achalasia


what happens


causes

motor disorder fromfailure of LES to relax


decreased or absent peristalsis


primary: degeneration of nerves


secondary: inflam destruction of myenteric plexus


Chagas dz: infxn

gastric inlet patch


ectopic gastric mucosa: may cause bleeding


has parietal cells in it so esophagitis or meckels diverticulum

pyloric stenosis

failure to thrive


contraction alkalosis


bilious emesis


dx with US, tx with surgery

hiatal hernia

hiatal hernia

very common


sliding type 1


can contribute to reflux


paraesophageal usually referred for surgical repair

where are chief cells and pareital cells located


endocrine

chief in body and fundus


parietal: body and fundus


antrum: G cells D cells ECL,

where does serotonin come from


histamine

enterchromaffin cells


ECL cells

why are NSAID's so bad

lowers prostaglandins and causes epithelial injury also

what is Zollinger-Ellison

have tumor putting out gastrin so super high acid secretion

why is H pylori so bad


describe

is under the mucus layer


makes urease for inflam and ammonia which dmgs


some have Cag A- changes inflam response, Cag A positive more likely to cause cancers (all cancers have H pylori)



curved or s shpaed, urease +, gram-

how to dx h pylori

serologic for antibodies- but could be prior dz


urea breath test: carbon isotope labeled urea (can't be on PPI)


stool antigen test- doesn't work if GI bleed
