Bacterial Esophagitis

Оглавление

Clinically significant bacterial esophagitis occurs almost exclusively in immunocompromised patients. Secondary bacterial colonization of areas of prior esophageal injury and ulceration is more common. Bacterial invasion of squamous mucosa or the deeper layers is required to establish a diagnosis of primary bacterial esophagitis. Gram‐positive bacteria are the most common causative organisms (including Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus viridans, and beta‐hemolytic streptococci).
