Factors influencing • Aggressor • Acid • Pepsin • NSAIDs • H.Pylori • Defense • Bicarbonate • Blood flow • Mucous • Cell junctions • Apical resistance • Repair • Restitution • Proliferation • Mucous cap • Growth factors
H.Pylori • Acid hypersecretion • Inhibits antral D cells • Decreased somatostatin • Increased gastrin • Increased acid • Local alkalization of the antrum • Increased gastrin • Increased acid • Toxins • Cag A • Vac A • Cytokines • IL-8 • These cause inflammation -> direct damage to epithelium
Other etiological factors • NSAIDs • Gastrinoma (zollingerallison syndrome) • Smoking • Stress
Clinical features • Abdominal pain • Nausea • Bloating • Stool positive for occult blood • ALARM symptoms • Wt loss • Recurrent vomitting • Dysphagia • Bleeding • Anemia • If any alarm symptom present, UGI endoscopy should be done
Complications of peptic ulcer • Intractability • Bleeding • Perforation • Obstruction
Perforation • Acute abdomen – Sudden excruciating pain • Fluid sequestration into third space • Peritoneal signs • Guarding, tenderness, rebound tenderness • Free air under domes of diaphragm
Laparoscopic HSV using clips or harmonic scalpel Clips Harmonic shears
Bleeding • Melena/hematemesis • Nasogastric aspiration confirmatory • Shock • NPO, acid supression • Aggressive resuscitation with fluids and blood • Urgent endoscopy • If endoscopic Rx fails, or re-bleed, Surgery
Separation of the greater omentum from the entire transverse colon
Post operative complications of gastrectomy • Short term: • Intra-abdominal bleeding • Subphrenic abscess • Anastomotic leak • Pancreatic fistula • Duodenal stump leak • Long term: • Weight loss, decreasing nutritional status (reservoir capacity) • Diarrhea • Dumping syndrome • Alkaline reflux
Complications of gastrojejunostomy • Gastric hemorrhage • Anastomotic bleeding • Anastomotic leak • Obstruction (anastomotic or functional) • Anastomotic stenosis (long term)
