Abstract

Purpose. To evaluate endoscopic and morphological manifestations of gastroduodenopathies, as well as Helicobacter pylori (Hp) state and secretory function in patients with atherosclerosis of unpaired visceral branches of the abdominal aorta. Materials and methods. 118 patients with atherosclerosis of unpaired visceral branches of the abdominal aorta, aged 45–89, were examined. The comparison group consisted of 120 patients without atherosclerosis of unpaired visceral branches of the abdominal aorta. Patients of both groups had atherosclerosis of coronary arteries. The mucous membrane in esophagus, stomach and duodenum was examined at endoscopy; morphological tests and Hp infection tests were made using bioptats taken from the esophagus and stomach mucous. Acidic production was measured with endoscopic pH-metry. So as to verify occlusive-stenotic lesions in the unpaired visceral branches of the abdominal aorta, the following diagnostic tools were used: ultrasound Dopplerography for screening, computed tomographic angiography, aortography of unpaired visceral branches of the abdominal aorta with multispiral computed tomography. Results. At the endoscopic examination of upper gastrointestinal tract in patients with verified diagnosis of chronic abdominal ischemia, atrophy of stomach mucous (focal or diffuse) was met in 94.2% of cases. Erosive and ulcerative lesions in the stomach mucous were combined with atrophic changes in the mucous: erosion in the stomach – in 55.1%; ulcers in the stomach – in 27.1%. The incidence of detected focal changes in the esophageal mucous was 27.9%, in the stomach mucous – 54.1%, mostly due to intestinal metaplasia. Conclusion. The results obtained in the trial helped the researchers to formulate basic diagnostic criteria specific for erosive-ulcerative lesions of ischemic etiology.
