chemical - NSAID, ASA, bile reflux

36
Q

Case 35yo F hx addisons, weakness and pallor, dyspepsia, MCV 115, Hb 10.5, vitiligo

positive urease test

A

macrocytic anemia

positive urease - h pylori

  • non-erosive gastritis
  • also bc of pernicious anemia
37
Q

vitiligo

A

CD8 T cells and Abs to tyrosinase

may be associated with autoimmune thyroid, addisons, SLE

38
Q

macrocytic anemia

A

pernicious anemia**, homocystinuria, AZT, hydroxyuria, alcohol, hypothyroid, COPD

39
Q

pernicious anemia**

A

autoimmune gastritis

parietal cell Abs
-achlorhydria, gastric gland atrophy, intestinal metaplasia (premalignant) - adenocarcinoma**

hypergastrinemia** -because of the loss of acid secretion in corpus-fundus of stomach - carcinoid tumors**

40
Q

h pylori

A

mild diffuse pangastritis - 75%

15% - antral gastritis - duodenal ulcers

1% - bad - fundic and corpus gastritis**

41
Q

duodenal ulcers**

A

with antral** gastritis - stimulated by h pylori

42
Q

fundic and corpus gastritis

A

1% of h pylori

atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcers, metaplasia, adenocarcinoma, MALT lymphoma

lymphocytes activated - MALT lymphoma

watch patient closely**

43
Q

MALT lymphoma

A

with fundic and corpus gastritis - h pylori infection

44
Q
66yo F respirator, ICU for pneumococcal pneumonia, CURB 65 was 5
-chronic alcoholic and NSAID use
-coffee ground NG tube 
drainage
-famotidine drip failed
A

respiratory failure - stress

recent NSAID and alcohol use

platelet < 50,000 and PT > 1.5

drip failed - too stressed

45

DASH

A

erosive, hemorrhagic gastritis

Drugs
Alcohol
Stress
