 Med-Lib - Medical Online Library - English Articles - Oxford Textbook of Surgery - Peptic ulcer
The medical therapy is similar for both gastric and duodenal ulcer and includes the use of specific medications and elimination of known gastric irritants.
A gastric ulcer should be considered to be malignant unless scrupulous biopsy examination of a large specimen indicates otherwise and unless the ulcer heals on medical therapy.
Up to 1970 surgical therapy was chiefly undertaken in patients with painful gastric or duodenal ulcers who failed to respond to medical measures.

 Chapter 6 - Section 4: First Principles of Gastroenterology
Another therapeutic approach to the patient with peptic ulcer disease, based on different pathophysiologic mechanisms, includes the use of drugs that enhance mucosal defense.
There is epidemiologic evidence suggesting that the incidence and behavior of chronic peptic ulcers vary according to the site at which they occur.
The continuation of the environmental factors responsible for the initial development of the ulcer may be responsible for lack of healing.

 eMedicine - Peptic Ulcer Disease : Article by Meta Carroll, MD
Surgical Care: Surgical intervention is required in a small percentage of infants and children with complications of PUD that include perforation, obstruction, intractable pain, and bleeding unresponsive to medical or endoscopic therapy.
An 8-wk course of therapy is tried, by which time most ulcers are healed.
Medicine is a constantly changing science and not all therapies are clearly established.

 GIHEMORRHAGE
Bleeding with recurrence of pain suggests development of a deeper type of ulcer which should be evaluated as to choice of therapy.
Many of this group had a symptom complex simulating chronic peptic ulcer but with the history that the pain was of much shorter duration much less severe.
Peptic ulcer, with evidence of both obstruction and bleeding, calls for early surgical therapy rather than conservative management.

 eMedicine - Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding: Surgical Perspective : Article by James de Caestecker, DO
If a patient with a bleeding ulcer requires surgery, then knowledge of the patient's H pylori status becomes pertinent because it may help guide the decision to choose a particular surgical procedure, eg, simply oversewing the ulcer as opposed to performing an antiulcer operation.
Failure of endoscopy to maintain hemostasis is one of the indications to initiate surgical intervention, especially in high-risk patients.
The surgical management of bleeding gastric ulcers is slightly different from that of duodenal ulcers, but the concepts are identical.

Gastritis does not mean that there is an ulcer or cancer.
An ulcer (from Latin ulcus) is an open sore of the skin, eyes or mucous membrane, often caused by an initial abrasion and generally maintained by an inflammation and/or an infection.
It is simply inflammation — either acute or chronic gastritis has many underlying causes, from infection with the bacterium H.
