Endoscopic ultrasonography findings in acute gastric anisakiasis
Abstract:
To clarify the components of the thickened gastric wall in acute gastric anisakiasis, we evaluated endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) findings of acute gastric anisakiasis. Ten patients with acute gastric anisakiasis underwent endoscopic ultrasonography immediately after anisakiasis was diagnosed by endoscopy. In the acute phase of gastric anisakiasis, endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) detected a thickening of the gastric wall made of mainly thickened third layer with low echoic changes. When EUS was performed 7 to 11 days later in seven patients, the EUS findings had normalized. We made clear EUS findings in acute gastritis due to gastric anisakiasis. Consequently, we found, by EUS, that the main inflammatory lesion in anisakiasis was in the submucosal layer of gastric wall.

Clinical manifestations of acute gastritis
The patient with acute gastritis may have a rapid onset of symptoms, such as epigastric pain or discomfort, dyspepsia, anorexia, hiccups, or nausea and vomiting, which can last from a few hours to a few days. Erosive or hemorrhagic gastritis may cause bleeding, which may manifest as blood in vomit or as...

Few clinical manifestations differentiate gastric ulcers from duodenal ulcers. Distinctions in the location, timing, and pain relief are crucial for healthcare providers in differentiating between gastric and duodenal ulcers during clinical assessments.
