Very rare: The chances of cancer are there but quite remote. So i would not be too concerned as long as you take your antacids regularly and get egd done once every 10 years.

Can esophageal cancer be missed during an endoscopy? I often have a dull pain there. Would LPR or GERD be the cause as well? Diagnosed-gastritis.
