“…These CD3+ T-lymphocytes may (1) be attracted by an increase in local MHC class I expression [5], (2) express CD8 in 80% of the T lymphocytes, and (3) often produce TIA 1 and granzyme B [6, 7], thus rendering them potentially cytotoxic. Endoscopically, three different findings have been described for lymphocytic gastritis: (1) Normal, or only slightly inflamed, mucosa [8]; (2) Varioliform gastritis with multiple raised chronic erosions – also known as ‘gastritis en nappes’ in the fundus and corpus [1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]. (3) Hypertrophic gastritis in the fundus and corpus, with and without a gastric protein-losing syndrome [14, 15, 16, 17].…”

Background: It is not yet clear whether lymphocytic gastritis might not be a sequela of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection. The aim of the present pilot study was, therefore, to investigate whether lymphocytic gastritis can be cured by Hp eradication, which, if affirmed, would provide indirect evidence for an etiopathogenic relationship. Patients and Methods: 98 of 220 patients with lymphocytic gastritis diagnosed between 1988 and 1998 were investigated at least twice, with 61 of them undergoing Hp eradication treatment. In 29 of these patients, the pretreatment histological work-up using the Warthin-Starry silver stain revealed Hp colonisation, while in the remaining 32 patients the biopsies from the antrum and corpus were negative for Hp. The other 37 patients received no treatment, and served as a control group. Results: Both in the group with Hp-positive, and in the group with Hp-negative histology prior to treatment, eradication treatment led to healing of the gastritis, i.e. to regression of the gastritis parameters including normalisation of the intra-epithelial lymphocyte count, in 93.1% and 84.3% of the cases, respectively. In the control group the histological findings did not change. Conclusions: The results of our retrospective study support the notion that most cases of lymphocytic gastritis might be a consequence of Hp infection. This, however, needs to be clarified definitively by a prospective, randomized, double-blind study.

“…When this inflammatory pattern occurs in the stomach, colon, esophagus, and duodenum, it has been called lymphocytic gastritis, colitis, esophagitis, and duodenal lymphocytosis, respectively. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] By analogy, the term lymphocytic cholecystitis/cholangitis was chosen for this condition.…”

“…Korábban a lymphocytás gastritist az endoszkópos varioliform gastritis szövettani megjelenésének gondolták, de a szövettani és makroszkópos kép egyezése nem teljes [35]. A varioliform gastritishez az esetek felében testsúlyvesztés és anorexia, 20%-ban pedig hypoproteinaemia, hypoalbuminaemia, perifériás oedema (fehérje-vesztő enteropathia tünetei) társul.…”

A gyomornyálkahártya károsító hatásokra bekövetkező eltérései különböző morfológiai és klinikai tüneteket okoznak. Az eltérések változatos szempontok szerint osztályozhatók. Az áttekintést nehezíti, hogy azonos kóros hatások különböző, eltérő noxák pedig hasonló jellegű elváltozásokat okozhatnak. A gyomornyálkahártyában megjelenő kóros folyamatok pontosabb megismerése az ismeretek újragondolását igényli. A szerzők a gastritisek és a gastropathiák meghatározására, osztályozására és jellemzőinek bemutatására tesznek kísérletet. A gastritis szövettani meghatározás, amely a nyálkahártya gyulladását jelöli. Az akut gastritist fertőzések okozzák. Az idült gastritis két legfontosabb formája az autoimmun eredetű metaplasztikus atrophiás gastritis és a Helicobacter pylori okozta krónikus gyulladás. A gastropathia a nyálkahártya különböző szerkezeti eltéréseinek megnevezése, amelyekben a gyulladásos jelek igen mérsékelt, másodlagos eltérésként jelennek meg. A gastropathiák az eltérést kiváltó kóros hatás, a megjelenés jellege és a kialakulás módja alapján 4 csoportba oszthatók. Elkülönítésük a különböző kezelési mód és az eltérő kórjóslat miatt fontos patológiai és klinikai feladat Orv. Hetil., 2014, 155(2), 43-61. Kulcsszavak: gastritis, autoimmun atrophiás gastritis, Helicobacter pylori fertőzés, gastropathiák Gastritis and gastropathyAlterations of the stomach mucosa in response to different adverse effects result in various morphological and clinical symptoms. Gastric mucosa alterations can be classifi ed on the bases of diverse viewpoints. It makes this overview diffi cult, that identical toxic effects may cause different mucosal changes and different toxic agents may produce similar mucosal appearance. The more accurate understanding of the pathological processes which develop in the stomach mucosa needs reconsideration. The authors make an attempt to defi ne gastritis and gastropathy in order to classify and present their features. Gastritis is a histological defi nition indicating mucosal infl ammation. Acute gastritis is caused by infections. The two most important forms of chronic gastritis are metaplastic atrophic gastritis with an autoimmune origin and Helicobacter pylori infl ammation. Gastropathy is the name of different structural alterations of the mucosa. Its most important feature is the paucity of infl ammatory signs. Gastropathies can be divided into 4 categories based on the nature of the underlying pathological effect, on its morphological appearance and the way of the development. Differential diagnosis is an important pathological and clinical task because different treatment methods and prognosis.
