GI Pathology Outline

  • Esophagus
  • Hiatal hernia
  • Mallory-Weiss syndrome
  • Barrett esophagus
  • Carcinoma

  • Dilated portion of stomach protrudes

above diaphragm

  • Common! Usually asymptomatic.
  • Heartburn, reflux esophagitis
  • Danger: ulceration, bleeding

Hiatal Hernia

slide-6
SLIDE 6

Sliding (L) and rolling (R) hiatal hernias

slide-7
SLIDE 7
  • GE junction tears
  • Severe vomiting (chronic alcoholics)
  • Symptoms: bleeding, pain, infection
  • Treatment: cauterization
  • Prognosis: usually heals; sometimes fatal

Mallory-Weiss Syndrome

  • Replacement of squamous epithelium by

columnar epithelium with goblet cells

  • Complication of long-standing reflux esophagitis
  • Danger: 30-100x risk of adenocarcinoma
  • Treatment: screen for high-grade dysplasia

Barrett esophagus

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Adenocarcinoma

  • Commonest type in US
  • Risk factor: Barrett

esophagus

  • Distal 1/3 of esophagus
  • Symptoms: insidious onset;

late obstruction

Squamous cell carcinoma

  • Commonest type worldwide
  • Risk factors: esophagitis,

smoking, alcohol, genetics

  • Middle 1/3 of esophagus
  • Symptoms: insidious onset;

late obstruction

GI Pathology Outline

  • Esophagus
  • Stomach
  • Gastritis
  • Ulcers
  • Carcinoma
slide-18
SLIDE 18
  • Mucosal inflammation
  • Asymptomatic, or epigastric pain
  • Causes: H. pylori, autoimmune, NSAIDs
  • Danger: intestinal metaplasia

  • Erosion of mucosa into submucosa
  • Causes: H. pylori, NSAIDs
  • Symptoms: epigastric pain
  • Danger: bleeding, perforation

Ulcer

Ulcer

slide-24
SLIDE 24

Intestinal type

  • Arises in intestinal

metaplasia

  • Risk factors: chronic

gastritis, bad diet

  • Glandular morphology
  • Generally asymptomatic

Diffuse type

  • Arises from gastric glands
  • Risk factors undefined
  • Signet ring morphology
  • Generally asymptomatic
