Add to ORKGBackground and Aim: The familial aggregation of Barrett’s esophagus, adenocarcinoma of the esophagus, and adeno-carcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction, jointly termed familial Barrett’s esophagus, may represent a complex genetic trait. The aim of this study was to determine the proportion of patients with these diseases who have familial Barrett’s esophagus. Methods: Information on gastroesophageal reflux symptoms, known risk factors for Barrett’s esophagus, and family history of Barrett’s esophagus and cancers, was collected at six hospitals using a structured questionnaire from probands with either long-segment Barrett’s esophagus, adenocarcino-ma of the esophagus, or adenocarcinoma of the gastroesoph-ageal junction.
