Type I gastric carcinoids in atrophic gastritis.

DESCRIPTION An elderly woman with vitamin B12 deficiency was evaluated for dysphagia. Upper endoscopy identified Schatzki’s ring, the likely cause of her dysphagia, and atrophic gastric mucosa with absent folds and prominent vasculature (figure 1A). In addition, there were several erythematous papules in the gastric body (figure 1B,C). Biopsies of the papules revealed trabecular infiltrates of ...

Plasma chromogranin A in patients with autoimmune chronic atrophic gastritis, enterochromaffin-like cell lesions and gastric carcinoids.

OBJECTIVE In atrophic body gastritis (ABG) chronic hypergastrinaemia stimulates enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cell proliferation with development of cell hyperplasia, dysplasia and possibly type-1 gastric carcinoids. As circulating chromogranin A (CgA) levels are a marker of neuroendocrine tumours, we evaluated the clinical usefulness of CgA assay in ABG patients to detect those with carcinoids. ...

Netazepide, a gastrin/cholecystokinin-2 receptor antagonist, can eradicate gastric neuroendocrine tumours in patients with autoimmune chronic atrophic gastritis.

AIMS Netazepide, a gastrin/cholecystokinin 2 receptor antagonist, once daily for 12 weeks reduced the number of tumours and size of the largest one in 16 patients with autoimmune chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG), achlorhydria, hypergastrinaemia and multiple gastric neuroendocrine tumours (type 1 gastric NETs), and normalized circulating chromogranin A (CgA) produced by enterochromaffin-like cel...

Autoimmune atrophic gastritis: current perspectives

At present there is no universally accepted classification for gastritis. The first successful classification (The Sydney System) that is still commonly used by medical professionals was first introduced by Misiewicz et al in Sydney in 1990. In fact, it was the first detailed classification after the discovery of Helicobacter pylori by Warren and Marshall in 1982. In 1994, the Updated Sydney Sy...

Accuracy of pepsinogens for early diagnosis of atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer in Iranian population

  Background: Currently, non-invasive methods for screening atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer are lacking. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of serological parameters including serum pepsinogen I (PGI), pepsinogen II (PGII) and pepsinogen I: II ratio for the screening atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer.   Methods : The study population consisted of 132 dyspeptic patient...
