• Acute Gastritis:– Drugs, toxins, alcohol, Ischemia.– Infections (H.pylori transient)

• Chronic Gastritis:– Autoimmune: Pernicious an.

(autoantibody)– Chem: NSAIDs, Bile reflux,

Alcohol.– Bacterial: Helicobacter pylori.

School of Medicine JCU

Page 38: Pathology of Upper GIT

PUD: Overview• Helicobacter pylori infection*• Hyperacidity• Drugs - anti-inflammatory

(NSAIDs) & Corticostroids.• Cigarette smoking, Alcohol, • Rapid gastric emptying • Duodenal reflux.• Personality and stress• Genetic

Hurry, Worry, Curry

H.Pylori on the surface of gastric epithelial cells

Page 39: Pathology of Upper GIT

Helicobacter pylori:• Common infection• 10% of men, 4% women develop PUD *• Positive in 70-100% of PUD patients.• 1st Part of duodenum > antrum > G-E junction.• H.pylori related disorders:

– Chronic gastritis – 90%– Peptic ulcer disease – 95-100%– Gastric carcinoma – 70%– Gastric lymphoma– Reflux Oesophagitis.– Non ulcer dyspepsia

Page 40: Pathology of Upper GIT

H. Pylori Gastritis - Silver stain

Bacteria over epithelial cells

Page 41: Pathology of Upper GIT

H. Pylori - PUD – Pathogenesis

• Gram negative, Spirochete.• Does not invade cells • Colonize Acidic Gastric mucosa only * • Protease Break down mucous expose

epithelium for digestion + urea.• Urease Breakdown urea ammonia

neutralise acid reflex Hyperacidity.• Chronic infl. Gastric Metaplasia Ulceration.• Complications: Bleeding, perforation, stenosis,

Carcinoma.

Page 42: Pathology of Upper GIT

PUD - Diagnosis• Endoscopy – findings• Barium meal – contrast• Endoscopy, Biopsy/cytology, stains.• Culture – difficult – for research only.• HP fecal antigen test• Monoclonal antibody test on stool samples.

Specific (98%) and sensitive (94%). • C13 urea breath test – Radioactive – common.• H.pylori serology – IgG – new.

Page 43: Pathology of Upper GIT

Peptic Ulcer Morphology:• Common in duodenum than stomach (4:1)• > 80% single ulcer• Round small, clean,• punched out, <2cm*.• Radiating folds.• Microscopy:

– Superficial necrotic layer.– Inflammatory cells zone.– Granulation tissue zone - B– Collagenous scar zone - C.

Gastric Carcinoma

Page 54: Pathology of Upper GIT

Gastric Carcinoma:• Adeno Carcinoma (90%) Lymphoma (4%),

Carcinoid & Stromal tumors rare.• Adenocarcinoma Intestinal & Diffuse types.• Early (limited to mucosa) & Advanced stage.• Morphology: (Fungating & Diffuse infiltrative)

– Adenocarcinoma:• Intestinal type – fungating, Early diagnosis, better prognosis.• Diffuse type – diffuse infiltrating, late, poor prognosis.

– Gastric Lymphoma (MALT) – B cell, H.pylori.– Carcinoid tumor.– GastroIntestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) *

Gastric Adeno Carcinoma:

Intestinal Type• H.pylori Metaplasia• C. gastritis / atrophy• HER-2/NEU mutation• Well differentiated • No Signet ring cells.• Gland formation.• Better Prognosis

Diffuse Type• Idiopathic/familial.• No precursor lesion• E-Cadherin mutations• Poorly differentitated• Signet ring cells • No gland formation,• Poor Prognosis

Points to Remember: PUD• Peptic ulcer – Gastric/duodenum - acid & Pepsin.• Etiology: H. pylori, Gram –ve, Spirochete does not invade

tissue. Protease & Urease • Mucosal damage – Inflammation – ulcer – cancer.• Perforation, stenosis, Ca (Not duodenal).• single, punched out, clean, radiating folds (not in ca). • Microscopy: spiral bacteria-silver stain, inflammation.• Ulcer : necrosis, inflammatory cells, granulation, fibrosis.• Treatment: antibiotics + Proton pump inhibitors.

Case: 1• A 62-year-old female presented at the

clinic for evaluation of mild dry cough, affecting her sleep.

• Her medical history includes osteoporosis, HTN, mild memory loss, involuntary weight loss, has significant leg swelling. She takes 5 prescription medications for her medical conditions. She lives alone. She smokes about 1ppd and takes a glass of red wine to help sleep.

Page 63: Pathology of Upper GIT

Case: 1Questions: • Does the patient have GERD? • List risk factors from the history for GERD?• Does the patient exhibit any symptoms of

GERD?• How should this patient be treated?• How should the patient be monitored? • What is NERD? how is it different?

Case 2• 72y white man at aged care nursing home,

chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic alcohol abuse, chronic dementia, and multiple episodes of upper GI bleeding. He was admitted to the hospital with complaints of lightheadedness, syncope, and abdominal pain.

• Thin elderly man in no acute distress. BP 96/72, pulse 104, respiratory rate 24, and temperature 98.9°F. Hb 12.9%.

• The abdominal examination revealed mild epigastric pain on palpation. The rectal and prostate examinations were unremarkable;

• Black stool, tested positive for fecal blood.

Case 2

Questions: • Does the patient have GERD? • List risk factors from the history for

GERD?• Identify symptoms of GERD in this

patient?• How should this patient be treated?• How should the patient be monitored?
