Etiology

Gastritis

Abstract

Numerous etiological factors of chronic gastritis (CG) have been deduced a posteriori by means of endoscopic and later bioptic-histological examinations. However, the credibility of some past assertions must be reevaluated based on rigorous diagnostic and epidemiological criteria. In fact, to arrive at an indisputable diagnosis the histological data are absolutely necessary; additionally, to attribute specific responsibilities to an etiological factor, one needs epidemiological proofs which also take into consideration the spontaneous incidence of chronic gastritis.
