  • Title: Adenocarcinoma in a Barrett oesophagus.
    Author: Fransworth AE.
    Journal: Med J Aust; 1975 Apr 12; 01(15):470-2. PubMed ID: 1152692.
    Abstract:
    A case of adenocarcinoma developing at the squamocolumnar epithelial junction of a Barrett oesophagus is reported. This rare tumour was remarkable because of the youth of the patient and because of the signet-cell cytological pattern of the neoplasm. It is postulated that both the columnar epithelial lining of the lower part of the oesophagus and the malignant change are a consequence of long-standing oesophageal reflux.
