According to the prevalence, chronic biliary gastritis is among the most common etiological variants of chronic gastritis along with Helicobacter pylori associated gastritis and NSAID gastropathy. This review has been prepared to systematize data on the causes, pathogenetic mechanisms and methods of the diagnosis and therapy of chronic biliary gastritis. The widespread prevalance of biliary gastritis in clinical practice with insufficient understanding of the pathogenesis, the lack of diagnostic standards and unified treatment methods make the coverage of this problem very relevant. The review also systematizes known information about risk factors and pathogenetic mechanisms of biliary gastritis, discusses methods of the diagnosis and treatment of this disease, in particular, the use of ursodeoxycholic acid and cytoprotectors as pathogenetic therapy. The authors note that the treatment of biliary gastritis should be comprehensive and aimed not only at relieving dyspeptic symptoms and improving the life quality of patients, but also at preventing and inhibiting atrophic changes in the gastric mucosa. KEYWORDS: biliary gastritis, duodenogastric reflux, reactive gastritis, bile reflux gastropathy, reactive gastropathy, ursodeoxycholic acid, cytoprotectors.

This publication summarizes and systematizes the data available in the literature on chronic autoimmune gastritis (CAG) in order to increase the awareness of specialists about the modern possibilities of diagnosing the disease, including in the early stages. Possible variants of the disease clinical manifestation include gastrointestinal, hematological (primarily, the formation of iron deficiency and B12-deficiency anemia), as well as neurological. Patients with CAG are characterized by comorbidity with other autoimmune diseases. Presented the data on the most informative serological markers of the diagnosis of CAG, as well as laboratory tests to detect micronutrient deficiency, information about characteristic changes in the gastric mucosa and the prognosis of the disease. The diagnosis of CAG should be based on a multidisciplinary approach that combines a thorough analysis of patient complaints with a mandatory assessment of nutritional status, the results of serological, endoscopic and histological methods of research
