[Clinical pathology of gastric mucosal dysplasia].

The stomach cancer develops on dysplastic lesions of gastric mucosa. It can be found in every precancerous condition, as chronic gastritis, gastric adenoma, giant rugal hypertrophy, chronic peptic ulcer, gastric stump after partial resection, pernicious anaemia. So, this dysplastic change is not a specific lesion.

[Diagnostic possibilities of endoscopic ultrasonography in the detection of gastric cancer].

After conventional gastroscopy and biopsy the endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) was performed in 115 patients with gastric ulcer and carcinoma. The markers of benignity and malignity were analyzed by EUS, and the criteria of benign and malign excavated lesions were described. On the base of endoscopic pictures 3 groups of gastric excavations were distinguished, and the recorded images of this excavations were reevaluated.

[Esophageal and gastric candidiasis].

The authors examined the morbidity rate of mycotic diseases of stomach and esophagus. There were 746 biopsian and abrasian cytologic samplings carried out in a year and 12.3% of the cases turned out to be positive.

[Digestive tract tumors after gastrectomy of peptic ulcer].

In a series of 160 patients submitted to esophageal resection because of cancer, four cases were found who have been partially gastrectomized for benign stomach or duodenal ulcer decades ago (2.5%). An other similar case was detected by endoscopy and aimed biopsy.
