Title: [Long-term treatment of Ménétrier disease with ranitidine]. Author: Nitsche R, Siegel EG, Creutzfeldt W. Journal: Z Gastroenterol; 1989 Nov; 27(11):686-9. PubMed ID: 2515669. Abstract: A boy aged 15 years developed Ménétrier's disease with considerably elevated gastrointestinal protein loss. During treatment with ranitidine the gastric mucosa and the protein loss were normalized within 3 years. This therapy is being continued since 6 1/2 years meanwhile. A long-term treatment of Ménétrier's disease with ranitidine should, therefore, be tried in other cases.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
