[The role of chronic gastric ulcer in carcinogenesis]
Abstract:
Results of prolonged conservative treatment of patients with stomach ulcer are analyzed. Two groups of patients have been studied. Group 1 consisted of patients with long-term disease, incidence of stomach cancer in this group was 6.4%. Group 2 consisted of patients operated for stomach cancer and followed-up in cancer dispensary, 12.9% of them had the history of stomach ulcer. Based on anamnesis and results of morphological studies, cases of malignant transformation of chronic gastric ulcer have been revealed. It is demonstrated that prolonged conservative treatment of stomach ulcer in combination with high-grade dysplasia lead to potential risk of malignant transformation. The role of stomach mucosa contamination with herpes viruses was also studied. It is demonstrated that viral contamination is associated with immunodeficiency, maintains chronic inflammation in ulcer and promotes dysplasia progress.

Peptic Ulcer Disease I: Introduction
An acute ulcer, marked by superficial erosion and minimal inflammation, swiftly resolves upon identifying and addressing the underlying cause. In contrast, a chronic ulcer persists, potentially eroding through the muscular wall and forming fibrous tissue.

Pathophysiology of Peptic Ulcer Disease: Injurious Factors
In the antrum region, G cells secrete the gastrin hormone that binds to gastrin-cholecystokinin-B (CCK2) receptors on parietal and enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells in the fundic glands. Simultaneously, the vagus nerve releases acetylcholine, which binds to M3...

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...
