Endoscopy of Acute Gastritis (1 of 6)

6 rating(s) (3 ø)

Acute gastritis is not a single disease but rather a group of disorders that induce inflammatory changes in the gastric mucosa.

All of the causative mechanisms differ in their clinical presentation and have unique histologic characteristics. The inflammation may involve the entire stomach (pangastritis) or a region of the stomach (eg, antral gastritis).

Acute gastritis can be broken down into the following additional categories: erosive (e.g. hemorrhagic erosions, superficial erosions, deep erosions) and nonerosive (generally caused by Helicobacter pylori).
