Title: [The histology of gastric mucosa in B II-stomach (author's transl)]. Author: Lechner HJ, Anton D. Journal: Z Gastroenterol; 1979 Sep; 17(9):674-9. PubMed ID: 506360. Abstract: 131 patients operated on for gastric ulcer according to Gillroth II were investigated with gastroscopy and biopsy. The histology of the gastric mucosa was correlated with the time elapsed since resection. In most cases gastritis shows no difference between anastomosis and stump. In up to 12% gastritis in the stump was more pronounced that at the anastomosis. In the stump any form of gastritis can be seen even more than 20 years afer resection. Atrophic changes are more often to be found in the resected stomach and develop more rapidly than in the normal stomach. They probably result from the coincidence of the lost protective function of the mucous membrane after resection of the gastrin-producing antrum with the potentially damaging action of the contents of small intestine.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
