摘要: BACKGROUND: Screening Barrett's oesophagus is controversial owing to a large variation in the reported incidence of neoplastic change and lack evidence that screening improves tumour prognosis. AIMS: To determine cancer, its cost detection, stage disease at time diagnosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data from our surveillance programme have been reviewed assess malignant change, diagnosis, per cancer detected. RESULTS: 166 patients had annual endoscopic surveillance. Six (five men) developed cancer-an one 59 male 167 female patient-years follow up. The screened group significantly earlier than control unscreened cancers (p < 0.05). detecting was Pounds 14 868 for men 42 084 women. CONCLUSIONS: high but may be justified on basis early disease.
