要旨 食道外科切除材料を用い,食道胃接合部(esophagogastric junction ; EGJ)を病理形態学的に観察し,食道胃接合部病変の初期病変を解明した.食道癌にて切除された外科材料のうち,EGJに癌浸潤を認めない172例を検討し,隆起性病変が13例(7.6%)に,陥凹性病変が11例(6.4%)に認められた.隆起性病変は,上皮過形成に伴うものと,炎症性変化に伴うもの,Barrett食道に伴うものの3つに分類された.また,上皮過形成に伴うものは,上皮成分が重層扁平上皮の肥厚を呈するものと,腺窩上皮の過形成を呈するものに分類され,13例中8例(61.5%)に認められた.重層扁平上皮の過形成に伴うものは乳頭腫の初期病変,そして,腺窩上皮の過形成に伴う上皮過形成,および,炎症性変化に伴うものは炎症性ポリープの初期病変と考えられた.陥凹性病変は,Barrett食道に伴うものと,周囲上皮の過形成に伴うものと,潰瘍に伴うものの3つに分類された.Barrett食道に伴うものは6例(54.5%)に認めた.Barrett食道は,隆起性病変,陥凹性病変ともに,化生円柱上皮の未熟な初期段階の変化を認め,SSBE(short segment Barrett esophagus)の初期病変と考えられた.また,周囲上皮の過形成に伴うものと,潰瘍に伴うものは,びらん,間質の異型などの変化を認め,周囲上皮と比較して相対的な陥凹を呈するという特徴を認めた.
Early lesions of the EGJ(esophagogastric junction)were analyzed morphologically. We examined 172 cases of surgically resected esophagus due to the esophageal cancers, and found 24 early lesions of the EGJ. The 24 lesions were divided into the two groups : i.e. elevated and depressed lesions.
The elevated lesions included epithelial hyperplasia, inflammatory changes, and Barrett's esophagus mucosa. The epithelial hyperplasia showed thickened stratified squamous epithelium or columnar epithelial hyperplasia. The former was thought to be early lesions of squamous papilloma. The columnar epithelial hyperplasia and inflammatory changes were thought to include early lesions of inflammatory polyps.
The depressed lesions included Barrett's esophagus mucosa, hyperplasia of the surrounding epithelium, and ulcerative lesions. Barrett's mucosa in the present study may develop to become the clinical SSBE(short segment Barrett esophagus). The hyperplasia of the surrounding epithelium and ulcerative lesions resulted in the relative depressive lesions of EGJ.
