title: [The current physiopathological, diagnostic, clinical and therapeutic considerations of peptic ulcer. A comparison between traditional and modern therapeutic methods].
abstract: The authors, keeping in mind their clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic experience on ulcerous gastric and duodenal pathology, underline the effectiveness of the traditional antacids as well as that of the modern up-to-date antisecretory and cytoprotective agents. After having put into evidence the causes that can provoke peptic ulcer not excluding that of iatrogenic and their probable aetiopathogenetic mechanism and having hinted at another pathology that uses the same therapeutic remedies, the gastro-oesophagus reflux, they discuss in detail the active principles used in the gastric or duodenal pathology, the possible side and/or secondary effects that in the long run are determined when using only the modern therapy with the usual antacids. Therefore, they hope that these therapies are used after carefully considering the general clinical and anatomicopathologic situation of the lesion that must be created.
