Case description

Same case as above. The patient did not improve her symptoms. We had recommended a new endoscopy after the treatment. The malignant appearance became even more obvious after two months. Biopsies of gastric ulcer must be taken at least twice, even when only an ulcer scar is visible at the second examination. This is because often the presence of abundant necrosis causes false negative biopsies.
