Resumo

Bernadette Soubirous, January 7, 1844, to April 16, 1879. Canonized December 8, 1933. An esophageal biopsy showing columnar lined Barrett’s mucosa. The tiny fragment of residual squamous epithelium in this biopsy brings to mind an image of St Bernadette praying. This is perhaps an apt histologic representation of the Saint of Lourdes, a place associated with miracles and hope. 512867 IJSXXX10.1177/1066896913512867International Journal of Surgical PathologyCoyne research-article2013
