Proteinlosing gastropathy with gastric hypersecretion of acid (H+) and pepsin and hypergastrinemia. A case report.
A case with proteinlosing gastropathy with gastric hypersecretion of H+ and pepsin as well as hypergastrinemia is presented. Zollinger-Ellison syndrome was excluded by reduction in acid secretion and serum gastrin during the observation period as well as by the effect on gastric secretion and serum gastrin after injections of secretin and glucagon.
