TI  - Radiofrequency ablation coupled with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: a treatment option 
      for morbidly obese patients with Barrett's esophagus.

AB  - Barrett's esophagus (BE) is a premalignant condition that is associated with the 
      development of esophageal adenocarcinoma. Risk factors that have been associated 
      with the development of BE include male gender, Caucasian race, chronic 
      gastroesophageal reflux disease, smoking, age >50 and obesity. The current 
      management of BE is dependent on underlying pathological changes and treatment 
      can range from surveillance endoscopy with daily proton pump inhibitor (PPI) 
      therapy in the setting of intestinal metaplasia or low-grade dysplasia (LGD) to 
      radiofrequency ablation (RFA), endoscopic mucosal resection or surgical resection 
      in the setting of high-grade dysplasia. We report the case of a morbidly obese 
      patient who was found to have long-segment BE with LGD during preoperative 
      work-up for weight loss surgery with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP). The 
      patient underwent successful RFA for the treatment of her BE before and after her 
      RYGBP procedure. At 5-year follow-up, there was minimal progression of BE after 
      treatment.
