• Barrett’s Esophagus

  Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guests: Cadman L. Leggett, M.D., and Chamil C. Codipilly, M.D. Occasional heartburn from gastroesophageal reflux is usually nothing more than an occasional nuisance for most patients.  However, when the reflux becomes chronic, it can become more serious.  One complication is Barrett’s esophagus. On occasion, Barrett’s can develop into esophageal adenocarcinoma, an aggressive malignancy with a survival rate of only around 20% at 5 years.  Although usually seen in those with chronic acid reflux, Barrett’s can occasionally occur in those without any clinical evidence of acid reflux.  When should a patient with acid reflux receive an upper endoscopy?  What’s the significance of finding Barrett’s esophagus on an endoscopy?  How often does Barrett’s develop into esophageal cancer and does treatment prevent this from happening?  In this podcast, these are just some of the questions I’ll be asking our guests, Cadman L. Leggett, M.D., and Chamil C. Codipilly, M.D., both from the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss Barrett’s Esophagus.

• Transplantation Series: Lung Transplantation

  Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: John Haney, M.D., M.P.H. Lung transplantation remains a very viable option for patients with end-stage pulmonary disease who no longer respond to medical management. Over 5,000 lung transplants are performed annually around the world. However, its estimated that over 10 times this number are candidates and awaiting a transplant. A shortage of organs remains the major limiting factor. What are the common indications and who’s a candidate for a lung transplant? How are patients prioritized and chosen? What advances have been made in the field and what challenges remain? Finally, what role does the primary care clinician play in lung transplantation? I’ll be discussing these questions and more with my guest, Jack Haney, M.D., M.P.H., chair of cardiothoracic surgery at the Jacksonville campus of the Mayo Clinic. The topic for this podcast is “Lung Transplantation”.
