Background: Barrett’s esophagus is a significant complication of chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), characterized by the replacement of normal esophageal squamous epithelium with metaplastic columnar epithelium. This metaplasia is associated with an increased risk for the development of esophageal adenocarcinoma, a malignancy with a rising incidence and poor prognosis when diagnosed at advanced stages
