Abstract
Dilated intercellular spaces are a sign of epithelial damage in acid-perfused rabbit esophagus, a change best identified by transmission electron microscope. The aim of this work was to study the epithelial changes in reflux esophagitis by transmission electron microscopy, and to determine if this change is also a feature of acid damage to human esophagus
