Overview
Barrett's esophagus may be classified according to the distance between Z line and gastroesophgeal junction (GEJ) into two subtypes which are long segment barrett's esophagus and short segment barrett's esophagus.
Barrett's esophagus classification
- Barrett's esophagus may be classified according to the distance between Z line and gastroesophgeal junction (GEJ) into 2 subtypes: Long segment Barrett's esophagus and short segment Barrett's esophagus.[1][2]
- Long segment Barrett's esophagus: If the distance between the Z-line and the GEJ is ≥3 cm, it is called long segment barrett's esophagus
- Short segment Barrett's esophagus: If the distance between the Z-line and GEJ is <3 cm, it is called short segment barrett's esophagus
