Figure 1 Representative image of the retroflex view of the gastric cardia in a patient with a large hiatal hernia and Cameron lesions.
Figure 2 Representative endoscopic images of an intact gastroesophageal flap valve (A) and an impaired gastroesophageal flap valve (B, C).
A loose and dull fold was classified as an impaired gastroesophageal flap valve (arrow in B).
Figure 3 Representative endoscopic images of five patients with Cameron lesions.
A: Case #1 (no nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, Hb5.4); B: Case #2 (loxoprofen + low dose aspirin, Hb5.3); C: Case #3 (diclofenac, Hb6.3); D, E: Case #4 (low dose aspirin, Hb8.0); F, G: Case #5 (low dose aspirin, Hb10.3). An ulceration scar was noted at the point at which the gastroesophageal flap valve fold diverged from the anterior stomach wall (arrows in E and F).
