Overview

The majority of patients with [disease name] are asymptomatic.

OR

The hallmark of [disease name] is [finding]. A positive history of [finding 1] and [finding 2] is suggestive of [disease name]. The most common symptoms of [disease name] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]. Common symptoms of [disease] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]. Less common symptoms of [disease name] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3].


History

  • The usual history is suggestive for GERD clinical manifestations:
  1. Heartburn (pyrosis): burning sensations in the retrosternal area,.[1]most commpnly after eating.
  2. Regurgitation: flow of refluxed gastric content into mouth sometimes mixed with undigested food.[1]
  3. Dysphagia: potentially suggestive of a stricture.[2]
  4. Chest pain: mimicking angina pectoris, postprandial, squeezing and burning, substernal, lasting minutes to hours, awakens from sleep, exacerabated by stress, resolves spontaneously or with antiacids.[3]
  5. Globus sensation: sensation of a lump in the throat
  6. Odynophagia: if present usually]] indicates the presence of an ulcer.
  7. Less commonly: bronchospasms, laryngitis, chronic cough, hypersalivation, nausea.

Symptoms

Barrett's esophagus itself does not cause symptoms. The acid reflux that causes Barrett's esophagus results in symptoms of heartburn.

The change from normal to premalignant cells that indicates Barrett's esophagus does not cause any particular symptoms. However, warning signs [[that] should not be ignored include:
