  • Title: [Pathology, clinical appearance and therapy of Ménétrier's disease (author's transl)].
    Author: Lenner V, Stahlschmidt M, Wagner R, Neher M.
    Journal: Med Klin; 1977 Feb 25; 72(8):319-25. PubMed ID: 299912.
    Abstract:
    Clinical pathology of Ménétrier's disease is reviewed and 3 own cases are presented. All symptoms are unspecific exception made for the enteral protein loss. Roentgenologic and endoscopic appearance contribute to the diagnostic but only histologic examination is decisive. Gastrointestinal bleeding, acute pyloric stenosis, profuse albumin loss are all clear indications for an operation, but also the possibility of malignancy should be kept in mind. Resection should include all abnormal parts of the stomach. Recurrency of the Ménétrier's disease is only known after incomplete resection.
