  • Title: Recent advances in the management of gastric acid hypersecretion in patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.
    Author: Maton PN, Gardner JD, Jensen RT.
    Journal: Gastroenterol Clin North Am; 1989 Dec; 18(4):847-63. PubMed ID: 2575602.
    Abstract:
    Several histamine H2 receptor antagonists and the H+,K(+)-ATPase inhibitor, omeprazole, have been shown to be capable of controlling gastric acid secretion safely and effectively in patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. The relative merits of these agents are discussed, and their use in the acute and long-term control of acid hypersecretion and in special circumstances that require particular care are described. The surgical approaches to the control of acid secretion are described, and the current place of surgery in the management of acid hypersecretion is discussed.
