2. After transfuse blood the blood
pressure still low
Definition
Disruption of the mucosal integrity of the
stomach/ duodenum or both, caused by
local inflammation/ decreased mucosal
resistance/ hyper acidity which leads to a
well-defined mucosal defect (ulcer).
Gastric ulcers are due to decreased
resistance of gastric mucosa. (older
patients)
Duodenal ulcer is predominantly occurs
Etiology
Helicobacter pylori infection.
- Do not invade cells (only mucous membrane)
- Breakdown urea to form ammonia result in
breakdown of mucosal defense.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (eg. Aspirin,
Ibuprofen)
Stress
Cigarette smoking, alcohol, spicy food.
Pathophysiology
Predisposing factors, including H.pylori
infection of mucosa
Acid pepsin attack and/ or breach of
mucosal protection
Acute
inflammation
Destruction of
mucosa
Mucosal
ulceration
Extension through submucosal layers
causing deep ulceration

Gastric Ulcer
More common
Occur in the 1st part of
duodenum
Fibrosis may lead to
pyloric stenosis.
Can be more than 1
duodenal ulcer at a time.
Ant. Ulcer tends to
perforate & post. Ulcer
tends to bleed.
Less common
Occur near the lesser
curvature.
Fibrosis may lead to hour
class contraction of
stomach.
Large chronic ulcers may
erode posteriorly into
pancreas or into major
vessels such as the
splenic artery.
Cont.
Duodenal ulcer
Gastric ulcer
Relieved by vomiting
Clinical Features
Epigastric pain( described as boring, gnawing
or burning), intermittent and radiates to back
(in case penetrating the pancreas).
May described as indigestion or dyspepsia
Bitter regurgitation : esophageal reflux &
duodenal ulceration
Hematemesis and melaena.
Investigations
H.Pylori testing
Non invasive:
Serology tests to detect IgG antibodies
13C-urea breath test
Stool antigen test
Invasive:
Rapid urease test: during endoscope using CLO test
kits and results received within 3 hours
Biopsy urease test added to a substrate containing
urea and phenol red.
Histology: on Giemsa stain
Cont.
Oesophageal gastro-duodeno scopy (OGDS)
- View the ulcer and take biopsy
- Non malignant ulcer : sharp, punched out
defect, overhanging mucosal border with a
smooth and clean ulcer base.
- Malignant ulcer will be >2cm, bleeds on
touch, irregular margin with slough on the
floor.
Management
1. Control the predisposing or aggravating
causes
Modify diet
Reduce alcohol intake
Quit smoking
Avoid irritant and ulcer-provoking drugs
(aspirin & other NSAIDs),
Avoid stress,
Reduce oesophageal reflux by losing weight
and attention to posture
3. Medical treatment
PPI: omeprazole
H2 receptor antagonists (ranitidine,
famotidine and roxatidine)
Gastric Carcinoma
Worldwide, the fourth most
common cancer and the
second most common cause
of death.

Symptoms

left supraclavicular) and Irish node (anterior axillary)

Investigations
1. Laboratory studies
2. Diagnostic
3. Staging
Management
i) Surgery
depends on the location, size, and locally
invasive characteristics of the tumor.
a) Total gastrectomy
b) Esophagogastrectomy for tumors of the
cardia and gastroesophageal junction
c) Subtotal gastrectomy for tumors of the
distal stomach
d) Lymph node dissection
ii) Chemotherapy
Platinum-based combination chemotherapy:
First-line regimens include epirubicin/cisplatin/5FU.
Ramucirumab for the treatment of advanced
stomach cancer or gastroesophageal (GE)
junction adenocarcinoma in patients with
unresectable or metastatic disease following
therapy with a fluoropyrimidine- or platinumcontaining regimen.
Oesophagitis
Symptoms
Heartburn (often at night, worsened
by lying flat, initiated by bending,
stooping or heavy lifting)
Bitter taste in the mouth
Dysphagia (long term)
Investigation
Barium swallow and barium meal
Oesophageal ulcer and peptic strictures
Endoscopy
For patients who do not improve on
medical trial, long standing symptoms
Treatment
Proton Pump Inhibitor: Pantoprazole,
Omeprazole
Esophageal Varices
Caused by portal hypertension ( >
10mmHg )
Portal hypertension are caused by:
Liver cirrhosis
Hepatitis
Alcohol
Pathophysiology
1. Caused by increased portal vascular
resistance and increased portal flow /
pressure
2. Due to obstruction, collaterals are
formed within systemic circulation
3. The walls of the veins are easily
ruptured if the pressure is high
4. Hematemesis is the most common
presentation
Japanese Classification
Management
General
Secure airway, breathing and circulation
Resuscitation
Administer vitamin K
Short term antibiotic prophylaxis for 7
days
Management
Definitive
Endoscopic scleropathy / banding
Facilities not available give pharmacologic
treatment
Vasopressin / Somatostatin to temporarily reduce portal
pressure and reduce the bleeding
