dc.description.abstractThis study was undertaken to assess the frequency of significant esophageal involvement in the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES). In a consecutive series of 24 patients with this disease, 9 (37%) showed endoscopic evidence of acid-induced esophageal lesions ranging from erosive inflammation to ulceration with massive bleeding, severe stricture formation, and perforation. In 3 cases, pronounced esophagitis was known 1–5 years before the underlying disease was diagnosed. Severe esophageal complications developed despite treatment with antisecretory drugs. It is emphasized that the best way to limit such complications is by excision of the underlying gastrin-secreting tumor(s) when possible . Nous avons entrepris cette étude pour établir la fréquence de participation oesophagienne dans le syndrome de Zollinger-Ellison. Pour une série de 24 patients présentant cette maladie, 9 (37%) avaient à l'endoscopie des lésions oesophagiennes dues à l'acidité allant de l'érosion inflammatoire à l'ulcération avec saignement important, sténose sévère, et perforation. Dans 3 cas, une oesophagite importante était connue 1–5 ans avant que la maladie sous-jacente soit diagnostiquée. Des complications oesophagiennes sévères se sont produites malgré le traitement antisécrétoire. Nous insistons sur le fait que le meilleur moyen de limiter ces complications est d'exciser chaque fois que possible la ou les tumeurs sous-jacentes sécrétant la gastrine. El presente estudio fue emprendido con el propósito de determinar la frecuencia de afección ácido péptica significativa del esófago en pacientes con síndrome de Zollinger-Ellison. En una serie de 24 pacientes consecutivos con esta enfermedad, 9 (37%) exhibieron evidencia endoscópica de lesiones esofágicas inducidas por ácido, las cuales variaron entre inflamación erosiva y ulceración con sangrado masivo, estrechez severa, y perforación. En 3 pacientes se conocía la existencia de esofagitis severa entre 1 y 5 años antes del diagnóstico de la enfermedad de base. Se desarrollaron graves complicaciones esofágicas a pesar del tratamiento con drogas antisecretorias en 3 pacientes. Se hace enfasis en que la mejor manera de disminuir tales complicaciones es mediante la resección del tumor(es) secretor de gastrina, cuando ello sea posible.en_US
