From the l9th of July to the l9?' of October 1999, we conducted a study to evaluate the diagnostic capabilities/benefits of the double contrast barium esophagogram in patients with esophagitis. The sample patients were taken from patients with reflux-type dyspepsia who visited the out patient clinic of the Sub-department of Gastroenterology ofthe Department of Internal Medicine of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of indonesia/Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta. During the duration of study 32 patients fulfilled the criteria for inclusion, and did not fulfill the criteria for exclusion. All of the subjects underwent double contrast barium esophagogram, Bernstein lest, and endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract, as well as biopsy of the lower third esophageal mucosa. The chief complaints for reflux type dyspepsia were found in the following order: pyrosis/heartburn (56.26%), acid/sour taste in the mouth (12.5%), chest pain (9.3 8%), swallowing disturbance (6.25%). breathing difficulties (6.25%), belching (6.25%), and palpitation (3.12%) From the 32 patients with reflux type dyspepsia that underwent double contrast barium esophagogram, 10 patients (3l. 25%) were found positive for esophagitis, and the remaining 22 patients were found to be negative (68.75%). Bernstein test found 11 patients (34.37%) positive and 21 (65.63%) negative, while endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract showed positive esophagitis in 25 patients (78. 13%) and negative in 7 patients (2l.87%). The degree of accordance between double contrast barium esophagogram and the Bernstein test or even a combination of the two was unsatisfactory in diagnosing esophagitis in reflux type dyspepsia. Based on this, this study concludes that double contrast barium esophagogram and Bernstein are incapable of replacing endoscopic examination in establishing the diagnosis of esophagitis.

Tujuan : Untuk meningkatkan peran radiodiagnostik dalam mendeteksi adanya varises esofagus yang belum berdarah serta menilai ketepatan diagnostik pemeriksaan barium esofagogram dalam mendiagnosis varises esofagus pada pasien dengan sirosis hati. Bahan dan Cara : Pemeriksaan esofagogram dilakukan pada 25 pasien, dengan usia antara 23 tahun-80 tahun. Jenis kelamin terbanyak laki-laki 17 orang (68 %) sedangkan perempuan 8 orang (32%), semua pasien dengan kelainan sirosis hati yang belum berdarah (hematemesisl melena) dan hipertensi portal. Varises esofagus yang belum berdarah telah diperlihatkan dengan baik dengan pemeriksaan esofagogram yang hasilnya dikorelasikan dengan temuan endoskopi sebagai bake emas. Hasil dan Kesimpulan Pada uji statistik didapat hasil sensitifitas pemeriksaan esofagogram 84% dengan spesifisitas 0%, nilai PPV 100%. dan NPP 0%. Nilai Kappa dari pemeriksaan ini 0,79 didapat kesesuaian baik. Hasil penelitian ini memperlihatkan esofagogram dapat dipergunakan untuk menilai adanya varises esofagus pada pasien sirosis hati yang belum berdarah. Dari penelitian ini juga didapat kesesuaian yang baik antara pemeriksaan endoskopi dan esofagogram.

Purpose : To improve the role of radiodiagnosis in detecting unruptured esophageal varices and to evaluate the accuracy of barium esophagogram in establishing the diagnosis of esophageal varices in patients with liver cirrhosis. Material and method : Esophagogram is performed in 25 patients (23-80 years old). 17 patients (68%) are male and 8 patients (32%'- are female. All patients are suffering from uncomplicated liver cirrhosis (no hematemesis or nrelena) and portal hypertension. Unruptured esophageal varices is visualized well using esophagogram, and the result is compared to endoscopic finding as gold standard. Result and conclusion : Statistical analysis concluded that esophagogram has 84% sensitivity, 0% spesfficity, 100% PPV value and 0% NPP value. Kappa score from this examination is 0,79 with good correlation. This study shows that esophagogram can be used to evaluate esophageal varices in patients with uncomplicated liver cirrhosis. There is good correlation between esophagogram and endoscopic examination.
