  • Title: [Atrophic corpus gastritis and autoimmune gastritis].
    Author: Reitzig P, Gütz HJ, Apostoloff E, Irro F, Pilgrim G, Herbrandt I.
    Journal: Dtsch Z Verdau Stoffwechselkr; 1987; 47(3):101-4. PubMed ID: 3311704.
    Abstract:
    The authors tried to clarify relations between autoimmune gastritis and isolated atrophic corpus gastritis by bioptic corporal and antral examinations from 150 probands as well as examinations of gastrin in serum and parietal cell antibody tests. Only 30% of all patients examined with isolated atrophic gastritis of the corpus part revealed criteria of an autoimmune gastritis. Therefore investigations of antibodies against parietal cells are necessary to mark off both clinical pictures. This differentiation seems to be necessary regarding the high risk of gastric cancer following an autoimmune gastritis.
