    Chronic inflammation is common in gastric mucosa, affecting 75% of patients. Most cases show mild to severe inflammation, with few instances of true superficial gastritis, atrophy, or intestinal metaplasia.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Pathology
    • Histology

    Background:

    • Gastric mucosal inflammation is a common finding.
    • Understanding the prevalence and characteristics of gastritis is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.
    • Histopathological evaluation of gastric biopsies is the gold standard for assessing mucosal changes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the prevalence and grades of chronic inflammatory cellular infiltration in gastric mucosal biopsies.
    • To determine the occurrence of atrophy and intestinal metaplasia in conjunction with gastritis.
    • To identify cases of true superficial gastritis.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of 241 gastric mucosal biopsy specimens.
    • Histopathological examination to identify and grade chronic inflammatory cellular infiltration.

  • Assessment for the presence or absence of gastric atrophy and intestinal metaplasia.

    • Main Results:

    • Chronic inflammatory cellular infiltration was observed in 181 out of 241 patients (75.1%).
    • Inflammation was graded as mild, moderate, or severe.
    • Atrophy and intestinal metaplasia were noted, with only three cases exhibiting true superficial gastritis.

    Conclusions:

    • Chronic gastritis is highly prevalent in the examined patient cohort.
    • The majority of gastric mucosal biopsies show signs of chronic inflammation.
    • True superficial gastritis is a rare finding, suggesting other forms of gastritis are more common.
