Abstract :Barrett\`s esophagus is the transformation of the normal squamous epithelium in the distal esophagus into columnar epithelium with intestinal metaplasia. Barrett\`s esophagus generally develops as a result of chronic mucosal irritation due to gastroesophageal reflux. Although Barrett\`s esophagus is usually seen over the age of 50, it can also be seen at younger ages. In our case, it was seen in a 34-year-old male patient. The patient applied to the general surgery outpatient clinic with complaints of swelling in the stomach, pain and watering in the mouth. When endoscopy is performed; the cervical and thoracic esophageal mucosa appeared normal, and the Z line was 40 cm distally. The esophageal mucosa had a hyperemic appearance. Multiple biopsies were taken from these areas. In histopathological evaluation, special columnar epithelium, mucin-filled cytoplasm, goblet cells insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(intestinal metaplasia); were observed. Goblet cells were positively stained by PAS/Alcian Blue and Mucincarmine histochemical staining.
