[Endoscopic chromoscopy in diagnosing and treatment of complicated gastroesophageal reflux disease].

The authors describe the results of examination and endoscopic treatment of 278 patients with clinical symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease. The method of fibroesophagoduodenoscopy with 3% Lugol aqueous solution chromoscopy was introduced in medical-diagnostic algorithm of the patients. Inclusion of chromoendoscopy in the program of examination and treatment of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease allowed higher detection of severe epithelial dysplasia (to 10.3%), leukoplakia (to 62.1%) and esophagus cancer (to 3.5%) and improvement of the results of endoscopic treatment.
