Résumé
In this study [34] patients were examined by upper GIT endoscopy who were suffering from features of gastroesophageal reflux disease. The first group which included [26] [76%] patients complaining of non ulcer dyspepsia and the second group [8] [24%] patients complain of non cardiac chest pain. Results show reflux oesophagitis in [17] patients [50%] either via direct endoscopic view or positive lower oesophageal biopsy studies. Upper GIT endoscopy was helpful for exclusion of peptic ulcer and non peptic oesophagitis but it didn't confirm reflux oesophagitis in the majority of cases for which it is necessary to routinely apply other techniques plus endoscopy. Such as 24hrs esophageal monometry and 24 hrs. oesophageal pH anlysis plus Radio isotope scanning to improve the capability of diagnosis of gastrroesophageal reflux which is represented in different way as dyspepsia and chest pain
