Table 2 Histology of IP in all patients with biopsy targeted to IP, and separately in two subgroups stratified according to maximum diameter of IP (percentages of columns)

From: The prevalence of gastric heterotopia of the proximal esophagus is underestimated, but preneoplasia is rare - correlation with Barrett’s esophagus

 

All patients with biopsy, n = 46

Maximum diameter of IP

<1 cm, n = 24
