title: [Hypochlorhydria in acute gastritis (author's transl)].
abstract: After swallowing a non-sterilised pH electrode a 25-year-old medical student developed an influenza-like illness followed by hypo- and achlorhydria for several weeks, acute leukocyte-gastrititis, and epithelial defects of the antrum. This possibly represents an infectious disease which can be transmitted by contaminated electrodes or probes.
