[Endoscopic and histofunctional study in gastroptosis (author's transl)].

The AA., after the nosographic, etiopathogenetic and clinical description of the "gastroptosic disease", give their findings of a functional and morphologic (gastroscopic and histologic) study accomplished over 200 patients with stomac tonus and/or stomac position disturbances. This study, confirming the numerous anomalies of the gastric-secretory function, especially of the hyposecretory and/or hypohydrochloric type, demonstrates the high incidence of the macro- and microscopic changes on the gastric mucosa.
