Hiatal hernia is the most common cause of oesophageal reflux disease. A chronic reflux disease can cause an abnormal change in the oesophageal mucosa, called Barrett´s oesophagus which can be found in 5 - 15% of patients seeking help for reflux symptoms. Barrett´s oesophagus is a risk factor for oesophageal cancer. The risk is not high however - about 0.5% per patient year.
