Histopathology
The histopathology of the biopsies demonstrates:
severity, stage and type of your reflux (acidic, non acidic; compensated, mild or advanced)
presence of cancer risk (Barrett’s esophagus)
failure of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES)
type of food and beverages causing your reflux (sweeties, alcohol).
