Erosive gastritis

Erosive gastritis - erosion of the gastric mucosa, caused by damage to the protective factor of the mucosa. The disease is usually acute, complicated by bleeding, but can be subacute or chronic with unexpressed symptoms or lack of any signs. The diagnosis is made with endoscopy.

Non-erosive gastritis

Changes are detected by endoscopy. The treatment is aimed at the destruction of H. Pylori and sometimes suppression of acidity.

Chronic gastritis caused by Helicobacter pylori

Chronic gastritis caused by Helicobacter pylori can be asymptomatic or cause varying degrees of severity of dyspepsia. The diagnosis is established by a respiratory test with urea labeled C14 or C13, and morphological studies of biopsy specimens during endoscopy. Treatment of chronic gastritis caused by Helicobacter pylori is the use of proton pump inhibitors and two antibiotics.

Chronic fibrosis esophagitis

Chronic fibrosis esophagitis should be considered as a late complication of chronic nonspecific esophagitis, resulting from the proliferation of connective tissue fibers leading to fibrotic degeneration of the esophagus.

Esophagus rupture

Esophagus rupture can be iatrogenic when performing endoscopic procedures or other manipulations or spontaneous (Burkhava syndrome). The condition of patients is severe, signs of mediastinitis are expressed. The diagnosis is established by esophagography with a water-soluble contrast agent. Need emergency esophagus and drainage.
