  • Title: [Relapse of bleeding ulcer in a 15 year-old boy with collagenous gastritis].
    Author: Haase AM, Kelsen J.
    Journal: Ugeskr Laeger; 2012 Jun 18; 174(25):1748-9. PubMed ID: 22713227.
    Abstract:
    Collagenous gastritis (CG) is a rare disorder. Two patient groups are known: 1) Children and young adults, presenting with anaemia and abdominal pain, and 2) adults presenting with watery diarrhoea. In the latter group, CG is frequently associated with collagenous colitis and/or coeliac disease. This case concerns a 15-year-old boy with a bleeding ulcer. The biopsies from corpus ventriculi showed a thickened subepithelial collagen band (> 10 micrometres), and the patient was diagnosed with CG. Ulcers are rarely linked to CG. CG should be considered when ulcers are found in children and young adults.
