Helicobacter pylori infection causes atrophic gastritis in childhood, but atrophic gastritis due to H pylori infection is extremely rare in infancy. The relationship between H pylori infection and chronic diarrhea without protein leakage remains We report a case of chronic diarrhea due to hypergastrinemia with achlorhydria but without gastritis in a five-year-old boy. Symptoms responded promptly to oral administration of hydrochloric acid and resolved completely after one year of treatment. The pathophysiologic situation in this patient
A 12-year-old Morgan gelding was examined for colic of 3 days duration. Signs of depression, colic, diarrhea, and endotoxemia persisted despite aggressive medical therapy and surgical exploration. Culture results from gastric fluid and feces yielded many colonies of Clostridium perfringens. This
A 19-year-old young male presented with abdominal pain and constipation. Subsequent EGD showed nodular gastric mucosa with simple gastric aspirate demonstrating acidic pH of 2.0. The gastric biopsy showed thick subepithelial band of about 15 microns that was confirmed to be collagen on Masson's
Collagenous gastritis is a rare gastrointestinal disorder characterized in pediatrics by abdominal pain and anemia. The literature divides collagenous gastritis into distinct pediatric-onset and adult-onset phenotypes. As opposed to pediatric form, the adult form is associated with collagenous
A patient with pernicious anemia developed severe intractable diarrhea night and day. Investigation revealed chronic atrophic gastritis and a markedly elevated level of serum gastrin. No obvious explantation for the diarrhea was found, but after antrectomy, the gastrin level returned to normal and
To compare clinical, endoscopic, and histopathologic features between dogs with chronic gastritis (CG) with and without lymphofollicular hyperplasia (LFH).64 and 56 dogs with CG with (cases) and without (controls) LFH, Collagenous sprue and collagenous colitis are two well-recognized idiopathic enteritides whose defining histologic attribute is fibrous thickening of the subepithelial basement membrane. Analogous changes in gastric mucosa seem to be quite rare. The term "collagenous gastritis" was recently applied
BACKGROUND
Gas located within the gastric wall is a rare finding that is associated with a mortality rate of 50%. It confers two main diagnoses: gastric emphysema and emphysematous gastritis. Due to its high mortality rate, emphysematous gastritis must be differentiated from gastric emphysema early
A 32-year-old man presented with bloody diarrhea of new onset. For three days he had had 10 to l5 bowel movements per day containing bright red blood. He also had had one black, tarry stool, but no fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, or constipation. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed acute
We present a case with extremely high serum gastrin induced by atrophic gastritis and Helicobacter pylori infection. The patient, a 95-year-old male, was diagnosed with idiopathic chronic diarrhea. During diagnostic work-up, his fasting serum gastrin was up to 2078 pg/mL. The secretin test was
