Abstract
Background & Aims: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) with/without endoscopic resection (ER) is the standard endoscopic treatment modality for Barrett's esophagus (BE) related neoplasia (BORN). The main aim of this study was to assess the long-term outcomes of RFA in patients with BORN. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the prospectively collected data from the Czech national database. Main outcomes were: complete remission of neoplasia (CR-N), complete remission of intestinal metaplasia (CR-IM), recurrence of both neoplasia and IM, and safety. Results: From a total of 170 patients with BORN treated with RFA, 136 patients were analyzed. They were followed up for a median of 27.5 months. Fifty-six patients (41%) had low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN), 46 (34%) had high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) and 34 (25%) had early adenocarcinoma (EAC). RFA was combined with previous ER in 65 patients (48%). CR-IM and CR-N were achieved in 77.9% (95% CI 70.0-84.6%) and 98.5% (95% CI 94.8-99.8%). Among 30 patients without CR-IM, 22 (73%) did not have macroscopic signs of BE. Recurrent neoplasia was detected in 4.5% of patients (6/134) and 15% (16/106) experienced a recurrence of IM at the level of the neo-Z-line. Diagnosis of cancer was an independent risk factor for recurrent IM after RFA (OR 7.0, 95% CI 1.6-30.9, p<0.0005). Conclusion: RFA is highly effective in achieving remission in patients with BORN. A significant proportion of patients did not achieve CR-IM or had a recurrence of IM despite macroscopically absent BE. Recurrence of neoplasia was infrequent but not negligible, thus, patients after successful RFA still require endoscopic surveillance.
