Title: The histologic pattern of bile gastritis. Author: Emmanouilidis A, Nicolopoulou-Stamati P, Manousos O. Journal: Gastrointest Endosc; 1984 Jun; 30(3):179-82. PubMed ID: 6735095. Abstract: Various nonspecific histologic findings have been described in gastric biopsies from patients with bile gastritis. In an attempt to identify any characteristic or specific histologic changes in such cases, we have blindly compared gastric biopsies from 23 symptomatic postgastrectomy patients with macroscopic gastritis with biopsies from 17 patients with macroscopic gastritis associated with peptic ulcer. It was shown that in bile gastritis the prominent histologic features were translucency of the surface epithelium, edema of the upper portion of the lamina propria, decrease of the parietal cells, and presence predominantly of neutral mucus in the cells of the surface epithelium and of the neck of the glands.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
