Background: Trimodal imaging endoscopy – HRME, AFI, and NBI – is a new promising technique for the detection of early neoplasias in patients with ESEM. In contrast to the conventional endoscopy this new technique may allow us to obtain targeted biopsies from suspicious lesions. Materials and methods: Seventeen patients (M/F 12/5 mean age: 59.2 years) with ESEM were submitted to HRME, AFI and NBI (Olympus GIF-FQ 260Z). Biopsy sampling was made on the conventional way (4 samples in every 2cm-s) on the one hand, and from all suspicious lesions detected by the trimodal imaging. The type of metaplasia and the presenc…
