[Clinico-immunomorphological characteristics of the mucosa of the distal segments of the large intestine in children with gastroduodenitis].
The clinical, x-ray, endoscopic and morphological studies performed in 156 children afflicted with gastroduodenitis have shown that concomitant lesions of the colon are of paramount importance in the genesis of this illness. The immunomorphological assay is the most informative one in the assessment of the pattern of structural alterations in the colonic mucosa. Examination of 71 colonic biopsy specimens has disclosed that 38 patients had minimal alterations in the mucosa characteristic of colodyskinesias and 22 had the signs of chronic inflammation, which plays an important part in goal-oriented therapy and prediction of the disease under consideration.
