Radiofrequency Ablation Is Associated With Decreased Neoplastic Progression in Patients With Barrett’s Esophagus and Confirmed Low-Grade Dysplasia

Barrett’s esophagus (BE) with low-grade dysplasia (LGD) can progress to high-grade dysplasia (HGD) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been shown to be an effective treatment for LGD in clinical trials, but its effectiveness in clinical practice is unclear. We compared the rate of progression of LGD after RFA with endoscopic surveillance alone in routine clinical practice.
