GERD is the backflow of highly acidic stomach acid to the esophagus. The epithelium of the esophagus is not adapted to these highly acidic environments therefore causing damage to the epithelium which is responsible for the symptoms.
Chronic GERD is a risk factor for columnar metaplasia of the esophageal epithelium or Barrett's esophagus; and developing Barrett's esophagus is a risk factor for developing esophageal adenocarcinoma.
