Faculty of Allied Medical Sciences Histopathology and Cytology (MLHC-201)
Intended Learning Outcomes By the end of this lecture the student should know : 1- The congenital disorders of the stomach 2- Acute stomach inflammation and stress ulcers 3- Chronic Gastritis and its types 4- Chronic peptic ulcers and associated types 5- Gastric Carcinoma
1. Pyloric stenosis: • Congenital stenosis of pylorus due to marked muscular hypertrophy of the pyloric sphincter, resulting in gastric outlet obstruction
2. Congenital Diaphragmatic hernia: • Congenital defect in the diaphragm, resulting in herniation of the abdominal organs into the thoracic cavity • The stomach is the most commonly herniated organ
1. Acute hemorrhagic gastritis: Definition: • Acute inflammation, erosion, and hemorrhage of the gastric mucosa due to breakdown of the mucosal barrier and acid-induced injury • Etiology: • Chronic aspirin or NSAID use • Alcohol use • Smoking
Clinical picture: • Epigastric abdominal pain • Gastric hemorrhage, hematemesis and melena
2. Gastric stress ulcer: • Etiology: • NSAID use • Severe stress • Sepsis • Shock and severe burns • Spirits • Smoking • Grossly: there is multiple, small round superficial ulcers of the stomach and duodenum • Complications: bleeding, haematamesis & melena
CHRONIC GASTRITIS • Definition: Chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa eventually leading to atrophy (chronic atrophic gastritis)
A- Fundic type (Type A): • This is an autoimmune disease • There is decreased acidic secretion. • It usually involves the body and the fundus of stomach
Gross picture: Loss of rugal folds in the body and fundus Microscopic picture: • Mucosal atrophy • Chronic lympho-plasmacytic inflammation • Intestinal metaplasia
B- Antral type (type B): • This type is commonly related to Helicobacter pylori Microscopic picture: • H- pylori organisms are visible in the mucous layer of the surface epithelium • Foci of acute inflammation • Chronic inflammation with lymphoid follicles • Intestinal metaplasia Complication: • Increased risk of gastric carcinoma
Peptic ulcer Definition: • Ulcers of the distal part of stomach and proximal part of duodenum caused by gastric secretions (hydrochloric acid and pepsin) and impaired mucosal defenses
Etiology: • Chronic NSAID and aspirin use • Steroids • Smoking • H.pylori
Complications: • Haemorrhage ( Haematemesis & melena) • Iron deficiency anaemia • Gastric perforation • Pyloric obstruction
Duodenal peptic ulcer: • It is more common than gastric ulcers • Eitiology: • H.pylori • Increased gastric acid secretion • Increased rate of gastric emptying • Blood group O • Cirrhosis & COPD
Grossly (Location of Duodenal Ulcer: It is located at the anterior wall of the proximal duodenum Clinical presentation: Burning epigastric pain 1-3 hours after eating and usually relieved by food
Duodenal ulcer.There are two sharply demarcated duodenal ulcers surrounded by inflamed duodenal mucosa. The gastroduodenal junction is in the midportion of the photograph
Gastric peptic ulcer: • Associated with H.pylori (75%) • Location: lesser curvature of the antrum • Clinical presentation: Burning epigastric pain, which worsens with eating? • Grossly: • Small (<3cm), solitary ulcer • Round or oval shape • Sharply demarcated " punched out" ulcers • Overhanging margins • Radiating mucosal folds
Gastric ulcer.There is a characteristic sharp demarcation from the surrounding mucosa, with radiating gastric folds.
Gastric carcinoma: • Risk factors: • H.pylori • Chronic atrophic gastritis • Smoking • Blood group A
Clinical presentation: • 90% asymptomatic • Weight loss and anorexia • Epigastric abdominal pain mimicking a peptic ulcer • Occult bleeding and iron deficiency anaemia • Location of Gastric Carcinoma: lesser curvature of the antrum
Pathology • Grossly: • Large >3cm, irregular ulcer • Heaped up margins and necrotic ulcer base • May occur as a flat or polypoid mass
Metastasis: • Virchow node: left supraclavicular lymph node • Spread to the ovaries: Krunkenberg tumor
Questions 1- Pyloric stenosis is characterized by the obstruction of …….. 2- The clinical picture of acute hemorrhagic gastritis is characterized by …….. 3- ……… and ……. are the types of chronic gastritis 4- The etiology of duodenal peptic ulcer involves …………… 5- Risk factors of gastric carcinoma are ………..
