Objective:
Aim: of the study is to determine the endoscopic and morphological features of chronic gastritis (CG) in patients with lumbar spinal OC.
Patients And Methods:
Materials and Methods: 102 patients with lumbar spine OC and CG were examined. The patients were diagnosed with Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection, according to which the patients were divided into two groups: the first group included 92 HP-positive patients, the second group consisted of 10 HP-negative patients.
Results:
Results: Among HP infected patients with lumbar spine OC, erosive gastropathy was most often diagnosed (in 40 (43.5%) of the examined), as well as erosive-papular and erosive-hemorrhagic gastropathy (in 14 (15.2%) and in 16 (17, 4 %) of patients, respectively), while erythematous gastropathy was more often diagnosed among HP-negative patients (in 7 (70.0 %) cases, respectively).
Conclusion:
Conclusions: 1. 90.2% of patients with lumbar spine OC and CG have been diagnosed with HP infection. 2. Endoscopically, the lesion of the stomach MM in patients with lumbar spine OC corresponds mainly to erosive and erosive-hemorrhagic forms of gastropathy. 3. During histological examination of stomach MM, mainly 2nd and 3rd degrees of inflammation were established, especially in patients with erosive, erosive-papular and erosive-hemorrhagic forms of gastropathy.
