Combined Gastric and Duodenal Ulceration

Peptic ulcer in south-west Scotland

“…Mangold (1958) in a series of peptic ulcers from the Central Middlesex Hospital reported 2-7 % of combined ulcers compared with 2-96 % in our series. It is noted that the percentage of combined uicers requiring surgical treatment is higher than for either duodenal or gastric ulcers separately.…”

Observations from New South Wales on the changing incidence of gastric ulcer in Australia

“…At younger ages there are more women with combined gastric and duodenal ulcer than men. showing a difference from the usually accepted age distribution of patients with combined gastric and duodenal ulcer, which generally has the same pattern as for gastric ulcer alone, as shown for men in this study (Mangold, 1958;Weisberg and Glass, 1963). I know of no study in which there has been a preponderance of women with combined ulcer at any age.…”

Effects of gastric surgery upon gastric emptying in cases of peptic ulceration.

“…We found, like Mangold (1958), that in these cases gastric stasis was unusual, and Salmon (1965) discovered only 11 gastric ulcers in 104 patients with pyloric stenosis. As in other respects (Johnson, et al, 1964), gastric emptying is similar in duodenal and pre-pyloric gastric ulcer patients.…”
