Abstract

Aim of this experience has been to evaluate the current diagnostic potentiality of the endoscopy in the framework of the gastric ulcerous pathology. On the total of the gastric ulcers 17.9% have resulted to be neoplastic with the hystologic examination. The diagnostic accurracy of the endoscopy has resulted to be of the 87% compared to hystology. From our data it is evidenced how the endoscopy examination has a relevant diagnostic accuracy in defining the nature of the gastric ulcer which however has to be confirmed by the histology which seems to be diriment.
