What disease is gastrinoma

summary

These days, when I get up and brush my teeth, I always feel that my stomach is very sour. I can vomit for a long time after brushing my teeth. I have no appetite for anything and I am haggard. The doctor said that it might be gastrinoma, so I was hospitalized. Today, let me share with you what gastrinoma is.

What disease is gastrinoma

First: gastrinoma is a kind of gastrointestinal pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, which is characterized by refractory, recurrent or atypical peptic ulcer and high gastric acid secretion, also known as Zhuo AI syndrome. The etiology of gastrinoma is unknown. It may originate from pancreatic α 1 cells.

Second: because gastrinoma is more common in pancreatic tissue than other tissues outside the pancreas, and the tumor is small, it is sometimes difficult to accurately locate the tumor. However, in recent years, with the improvement of B-ultrasound, CT or MRI diagnostic technology, it has created a good condition for tumor location. If there is no distant metastasis, the tumor can be cured after resection.

Third: Although most of gastrinomas are malignant, because of their small size and slow development, the tumor itself rarely causes obvious symptoms. Until the late stage of the disease, the symptoms of malignant tumor infiltration appear. Its clinical manifestation is mainly related to a large amount of gastric acid secretion.

matters needing attention

In fact, stomach disease can be prevented. This is to pay attention to diet hygiene in daily life. However, people suffering from stomach disease should also pay attention to the use of various kinds of drugs. They should strictly follow the doctor's advice and use them with caution, so as to avoid causing damage to the stomach.
