[Benign and malignant gastric ulcers: is their localization relevant in their differential diagnosis?].
A study of potentially benign or malignant ulcer in the stomach was made to assess its role in the differential diagnosis between these two conditions. In the 201 patients observed, no statistically significant differences in frequency in the various sites were noted as regard either benign or malignant lesions. The site of the ulcer cannot be taken as indicative of its nature.
