Surgery for peptic ulceration associated with hypergastrinaemia.

C G Clark, N L Chowcat, M R Lewin

    The British Journal of Surgery
    |April 1, 1986
    PubMed
    Summary

    This UK study of hypergastrinaemia found peptic ulcers linked to G-cell lesions or gastrinomas. Surgical outcomes varied, with younger G-cell lesion patients responding well to partial gastrectomy.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Endocrinology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Background:

    • Peptic ulceration can be associated with hypergastrinaemia, a condition of excess gastrin.
    • Causes include G-cell lesions, gastrinomas, and multiple endocrine adenomatosis (MEA).

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review surgical outcomes for hypergastrinaemia in the UK.
    • To identify factors influencing treatment success and patient prognosis.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 44 patients (1971-1983) with peptic ulceration and hypergastrinaemia.
    • Categorization of patients by underlying cause: G-cell lesion, gastrinoma, MEA, or unclassified.

    Main Results:

    • 25% had G-cell lesions, 32% gastrinomas, 25% MEA, 9% primary hyperparathyroidism.

  • G-cell lesion patients were significantly younger (P<0.01).
  • Mortality was 27.3%; partial gastrectomy treated G-cell hyperplasia, total gastrectomy was needed for gastrinomas.

    • Conclusions:

    • Surgical management of hypergastrinaemia presents challenges with significant mortality.
    • Partial gastrectomy is effective for G-cell hyperplasia, while gastrinomas require total gastrectomy.
    • MEA and hyperparathyroidism did not alter gastrinoma treatment outcomes.
