GERD is a condition that gastric content go back into the esophagus. This condition could came disturbances in the respiratory tract, heart and otolaryng. Those extra-esophageal clinical manifestation are common but often miss our attention. So it is important to explorate it further. The management of extra-esophageal GERD is similar with management of GERD. It is included life style modification and reducing refluxate with controlling pH with aggressiveness.

Esophageal polyp can be found by chance during endoscopic examination. Polyps can be formed by changes in the esophageal mucosa due to reflux esophagitis. We report a case of multiple esophageal polyp in a patient with complaints of recurrent regurgitation without heartburn. Endoscopy demonstrated multiple polyps at the distal esophagus. Anatomic pathology evaluation of the polyp demonstrated mucosa lined with squamous epithels demonstrating elongation of the papilla and deposition of acute and chronic inflammatory cells, indicating chronic esophagitis with hyperplastic epithels. In this case, we conducted recurrent ligation of the multiple polyps. Evaluation at 2 weeks after the final ligation demonstrated no polyp remains, and the post-ligation ulcer was found. Evaluation at 1 month following treatment found diminished complaints. From this case, we can conclude that endoscopy is an important investigation modality to establish the diagnosis in cases of chronic gastrointestinal complaints. Ligation is a choice for the management of esophageal polyps

Background: Esophagitis implies an organic damage of the esophagus due to several pathophysiologic factors, predominantly: (1) degree of gastric acid secretion (gastric pH), whereabouts are rapidly or slowly to be mucosal breaks onto esophagus were under the influe nced by: (a) gastric pH 54 and (b) the contact of gastric acid into esophageal mucosal. (2) Lower esophageal sphincter (LES) as a important lactor lor antifetlux mechanisms, which antireflux mechanism cannot senre as a barrier system whenever tone of LES comes down until 510 mml-lg that causes feeble resting LES pressure. Esophageal injuries are recognized endoscopicaliy by the presence of the Savary-Millers classification (1985), but there are not definitely which ones principally to pathophysiologic factor. Methods: This was a consecutive non-random sampling cross sectional study Thirty subject from 127 patients with dyspepsia undergoing elective upper-endoscopic examination with collecting of the gastric juice and biopsies of tower esophageal mucosal, also esophageal manometric examination. Before that, clinical inclusive and exclusive criterias until laboratory examination were performed. Significant interval was 95%. Analyzing data with Fisher?s Exact Test One-Tail to correlate between gastric pH and hypotonic LES into esophagitis. Results: Esophagilis prevalence was 22. 8%. Fisher's Exact Test One-Tail to correlate esophagitis with gastric pH E 4 was significant (p=0.013798), but with hypotonic LES (tones of LES S 10 mmHg) was not (p=0.60269). The combined roles or' gastric pH and tones of LES into esophagitis are included: (1) Frequency of roles of pH E 4 and hypotonic LES are 48.2% (2) Frequency of role of pH < 4 without hypotonic of LES are 33.3%. (3) Frequency of role of hypotonic LES without pH S4 are 11. 1% and (4) Frequency of esophagitis without roles of pH $4 and hypotonic ol LES are 7.4%. Conclusions: The sum of gastric pH 5 4 and hypotonic of LES together are more than each separate factor. Onto statistically was significant between esophagitis and gastric pH, but there is no correlation with tones ol LES. So, gastric pH plays a more important role than LES.

Non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) can cause gastropathy and gastric mucosa, especially the mucous may play an important prevention role. This cross-sectional, single group study was conducted to evaluated the difference of mucous thickness in antrum or corpus mucosa and the correlation of gastric mucous thickness to gastropathy. Patients who received NSAID from the rheumatology clinic were studied. Healthy subjects of 14 - 65 years old who never received NSAID were included as normal controls. Piroxicam 20 mg daily was given to the patients for 7 days, then gastroscopy and gastric mucosa biopsy with frozen section were performed. Specimens were stained with haematoxyline eosin and thickness of the mucous layer was measured using ocular micrometer. Thirty-two out of 70 patients participated in the study. All cases had hyperemia on gastroscopy with erosions and ulcer in 32 and 9 cases, respectively. The mean thickness of mucosa in distal antrum, proximal antrum and corpus was 28.5 ± 9, 37.4 ± 13.1 and 43.3 ± 13.1 microns, respectively. There was significant relationship between gastric mucosa mucous thickness with gastroscopic findings. In conclusion, this study confirmed that thickness of gastric mucosa mucous has an important role in preventing NSAID gastropathy and dyspeptic complaints in this kind of patients does not suggest abnormalities of gastric mucosa.

Bile reflux: gastropathy is a disease caused by reflux of duodenal fluid to the gaster: This fluid contains pancreatic juices and duodenal secretion. The manifestations that occur depend on the frequency amount, and duration of reflux. This disorder is quite rarely recognized in daily clinical practice. Endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract is required to establish the diagnosis of this disorder: This paper will give a brief view ofthe pathogenesis and diagnostic method for this disorder.

Ultrasonography examination is an one of examination that can be used to see the abnormality of portal vein system. The technology of ultrasonography examination has further developed especially after using of Doppler ultrasonography which could portray haemodynamic changes from portal vein in liver cirrhosis patient. From this examination we also could predict bleeding.
