Methods: To test this hypothesis, 268 symptomatic patients underwent endoscopic grading of the gastroesophageal valve using Hill's classification, with grades I through IV. Esophageal acid exposure, lower esophageal sphincter characteristics, and the degree of esophageal mucosal injury were compared among the groups.
Gastroesophageal flap valve grade (I-IV) was assessed using the Hill classification. Results: Endoscopic reflux esophagitis incidence was significantly (p <.01) higher in abnormal gastroesophageal flap valve (grades III and IV) than in normal gastroesophageal flap valve (grades I and II) cases in both H. pylori eradication and control groups.
The gastroesophageal flap valve is inspected in inversion and classified into one of four categories [2]. Hill II: Gastroesophageal flap valve less marked, with respiration-dependent incomplete closure of the cardia round the endoscope Hill IV: Gastroesophageal flap valve no longer present, permanent opening of the esophagogastric junction

Background. The Los Angeles (LA) grade of reflux esophagitis (A to D) is assumed to reflect severity of the underlying GERD. Thus, LA-D esophagitis patients might be expected to have the most conditions predisposing to GERD (e.g. obesity, hiatal hernia), and the highest frequency of GERD symptoms.

When other parts of the stomach than the esophagogastric junction or cardia herniate in a supradiaphragmatic direction and thus come to lie alongside the esophagus, the condition is described as paraesophageal hiatus hernia (synonym: type II hiatus hernia).
A mixed form consisting of axial sliding hernia and paraesophageal hernia represents type III hiatus hernia. Types II and III hiatus hernia are much more rare, and due to the potential complications associated with them (chronic bleeding, anemia, incarceration), they basically represent an indication for surgery.
This can lead to insufficiency of sphincter muscle function in the area of the lower esophageal sphincter. Axial hiatus hernia may be, but is not necessarily, associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease.
