II. Definitions

  1. Peptic Ulcer
    1. Esophageal, Stomach or duodenal erosion of the mucosa
    2. Mucosal erosions develop at sites of inflammation from Gastric Irritants (esp. NSAIDs) and infections (esp. Helicobacter Pylori)
    3. Presents with Dyspepsia, Epigastric Pain, Nausea, Vomiting and Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding

III. Epidemiology

  1. Annual Incidence: 0.1 to 0.3% in western countries (1 case per 1000 person years)
  2. Worldwide lifetime Prevalence approaches 1 in 12 adults in the United States (5-10%)

IV. Pathophysiology

  1. Inflammation from Gastric Irritants (esp. NSAIDs) and infections (esp. Helicobacter Pylori)
  2. Further injury occurs with gastric acid and pepsin secretion
  3. Erosions and ulcerations form in the Esophagus, Stomach and duodenum

V. Causes

  1. Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)
    1. Peptic Ulcers occur in 5-20% of longterm NSAID use (including Aspirin)
    2. Risk increases NSAIDS are used >1 year, multiple NSAIDs or Dual Antiplatelet Therapy
    3. Gonzalez-Perez (2014) PLoS One 9(7): e101768 [PubMed]
  2. Helicobacter Pylori
    1. Those taking NSAIDs who are infected with Helicobacter Pylori, have a marked PUD risk (RR 60), and GI Bleed risk (RR 6)
      1. Huang (2002) Lancet 359(9300):14-22 [PubMed]
    2. Prevalence is decreasing (from prior reported rates as high as 70-90%)
      1. Duodenal Ulcer: 25% Prevalence
      2. Gastric Ulcer: 17% Prevalence

  1. Children (rare)
    1. May present with poorly localized Abdominal Pain, Iron Deficiency Anemia
  2. Elderly
    1. Presents asymptomatically or non-specifically (e.g. confusion, Abdominal Distention)
    2. High risk of perforation and mortality
    3. NSAID Gastrointestinal Adverse Effects are more common in older patients

    1. Presents in seriously ill hospitalized patients (Mechanical Ventilation, Burn Injury)
  4. Pregnancy
    1. See Dyspepsia in Pregnancy

X. Differential Diagnosis

  1. See Dyspepsia Causes
  2. See Medication Causes of Dyspepsia
  3. Most common misdiagnoses for Peptic Ulcer Disease
    1. Functional Dyspepsia
    2. Esophagitis
    3. Gastroesophageal Reflux
    4. Gastritis
    5. Gastroenteritis
  4. Less common misdiagnoses for Peptic Ulcer Disease
    1. Biliary tract disease (Cholecystitis, Cholelithiasis, Ascending Cholangitis)
    2. Celiac Sprue (Gluten Sensitive Enteropathy)
    3. Inflammatory Bowel Disease
    4. Irritable Bowel Syndrome
    5. Pancreatitis
    6. Appendicitis
  5. Uncommon misdiagnoses for Peptic Ulcer Disease
    1. Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
    2. Acute Coronary Syndrome
    3. Barrett Esophagus
    4. Gastric Cancer
    5. Ischemic Bowel disease in the elderly
    6. Viral Hepatitis
    7. Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome

XI. Diagnostics

  1. See Dyspepsia for evaluation protocol
  2. No additional investigation necessary if
    1. Symptoms consistent with Duodenal Ulcer and
    2. Medication leads to healing within 6 weeks
    3. Test and treat Helicobacter Pylori if indicated (see below)
  3. Upper Endoscopy Indications
    1. Assess and reassess Gastric Ulcers
    2. Age over 60 years with new Dyspepsia
    3. Evaluate for Gastric Carcinoma or structural disorders in high risk groups
      1. See Dyspepsia Red Flags
  4. Upper GI with Follow Through
    1. May be sufficient for Duodenal Ulcers
  5. Helicobacter Pylori testing if ulcer not NSAID related
    1. See Helicobacter pylori Noninvasive Testing

XII. Management: General Measures

  1. Avoid Gastric Irritants
    1. Avoid Alcohol
    2. Avoid Tobacco
    3. Avoid Caffeine
  2. Avoid bland diets (not effective)
    1. May stimulate greater acid production
  3. Avoid Glycopyrolate Dartisla ODT
    1. Glycopyrolate was originally used in the 1960s for Peptic Ulcers to reduce gastric secretions
    2. However, since that time, much more effective medications are available (e.g. H2 Blockers, Proton Pump Inhibitors)
    3. Yet, in 2022 Dartisla ODT was released in 2022, at $500/90 tablets, a 10 fold markup over generic glycopyrolate
    4. Avoid glycopyrolate (including Dartisla ODT) in Peptic Ulcer Disease (we have much better. less expensive treatments)
    5. (2022) Presc Lett 29(4): 24

XIII. Management: Cause Specific

  1. Non-NSAID Associated Peptic Ulcer disease
    1. See Helicobacter Pylori
    2. Helicobacter Pylori test and treatment
    3. Proton Pump Inhibitor and Antibiotic regimen
  2. NSAID associated Peptic Ulcer
    1. Stop all NSAIDs (and other Gastric Irritants)!
    2. Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI)
      1. Continue for at least 8 weeks
      2. Uncomplicated empiric management without endoscopy is recommended (unless other endoscopy indications)
    3. Other gastric protection
      1. H2 Antagonists (healing rates are 50% that of PPI)
      2. Consider Misoprostol

XIV. Management: Refractory Peptic Ulcer

  1. Causes
    1. Persistent NSAID use
    2. Resistant Helicobacter Pylori infection
    3. Gastric Cancer
    4. Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome
  2. Measures
    1. Continue Proton Pump Inhibitors
    2. Consider surgical intervention in severe cases or those at high risk of complications
      1. Duodenal Ulcer: Vagotomy or Partial Gastrectomy
      2. Gastric Ulcer: Partial Gastrectomy

XV. Prevention

  1. Avoid NSAIDs
    1. See NSAID Gastrointestinal Adverse Effects for risks (and prophylaxis options if NSAIDS are needed)
    2. For those who cannot stop NSAIDs, consider COX-2 Inhibitor and continue Proton Pump Inhibitor

XVI. Prognosis

  1. Proton Pump Inhibitors have higher efficacy than H2 Antagonists
  2. On Proton Pump Inhibitor
    1. Duodenal Ulcers heal in 95% of cases within 4 week
    2. Gastric Ulcers heal in 80-90% of cases within 8 weeks
  3. Recurrence risk (Duodenal Ulcers)
    1. Non-smoker recurrence in 1 year: 60%
    2. Smoker recurrence in 1 year: >75%

XVII. Complications

  1. Complications occur in 25% of cases (especially in Elderly taking NSAIDs)
  2. Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage (15-20% of cases)
    1. See Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding
  3. Gastrointestinal Perforation
    1. Incidence: 1 per 10,000 per year for non-NSAID related Peptic Ulcer perforation
    2. Presents with severe Abdominal Pain, Acute Abdomen, with regional inflammation (Pancreatitis, hepatitis)
    3. Lowest mortality (6-14%) is associated with the earliest management in younger patients without comorbidity
  4. Gastric Outlet Obstruction (rare)
    1. Duodenum narrows with recurrent or persistent ulceration and secondary inflammation and scarring
    2. Presents with Retching and hematemsis
    3. Evaluate differential diagnosis including cancer
  5. Effects of therapy

Definition (MEDLINEPLUS)

A peptic ulcer is a sore in the lining of your stomach or your duodenum, the first part of your small intestine. A burning stomach pain is the most common symptom. The pain

  • Starts between meals or during the night
  • Briefly stops if you eat or take antacids
  • Lasts for minutes to hours
  • Comes and goes for several days or weeks

Peptic ulcers happen when the acids that help you digest food damage the walls of the stomach or duodenum. The most common cause is infection with a bacterium called Helicobacter pylori. Another cause is the long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs) such as aspirin and ibuprofen. Stress and spicy foods do not cause ulcers, but can make them worse.

To see if you have an H. pylori infection, your doctor will test your blood, breath, or stool. Your doctor also may look inside your stomach and duodenum by doing an endoscopy or x-ray.

Peptic ulcers will get worse if not treated. Treatment may include medicines to reduce stomach acids or antibiotics to kill H. pylori. Antacids and milk can't heal peptic ulcers. Not smoking and avoiding alcohol can help. You may need surgery if your ulcers don't heal.

Definition (MSHCZE) Defekt (ulkus) ve sliznici žaludku či dvanáctníku, na jehož vzniku se uplatňuje žaludeční kyselina chlorovodíková a snížené obranné schopnosti sliznice. Přispívají k němu dědičné a psychické vlivy. Negativně působí i některé léky zejm. nesteroidní antirevmatika, kortikoidy a některá onemocnění (jaterní cirhóza). Významným patogenetickým faktorem je bakterie Helicobacter pylori. Základním příznakem je bolest, která u vředu na dvanáctníku je vázána na hlad (např. v noci) a po jídle se zmírňuje. Obtíže jsou často sezónní - zhoršují se na jaře a na podzim. V některých případech se objevují závažné akutní komplikace vředu: krvácení, perforace, penetrace, popř. vznik obstrukce. V diagnóze se uplatňuje zejm. gastroskopie, event. rentgenové metody. Léčba spočívá v podávání antiulcerózních látek (inhibitory protonové pumpy, H2-antagonisté v kombinaci s antibiotiky k eradikaci H. pylori; popř. se mohou podávat antacida či spasmolytika). Význam mají i režimová opatření. Účinná léčba snížila počet prováděných chirurgických zákroků. P. v. může recidivovat. Histologické vyšetření u p. v. v žaludku je nutné s ohledem na vyloučení event. karcinomu (zejm. při snížené aciditě). Příznaky podobné vředu mohou někdy být důsledkem funkční dyspepsie. (cit. Velký lékařský slovník online, 2013 http://lekarske.slovniky.cz/ )
Definition (NCI) A mucosal erosion that occurs in the esophagus, stomach or duodenum. Symptoms can include abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, and bleeding.
Definition (NCI_NCI-GLOSS) A break in the lining of the lower part of the esophagus, the stomach, or the upper part of the small intestine. Peptic ulcers form when cells on the surface of the lining become inflamed and die. They are usually caused by Helicobacter pylori bacteria and by certain medicines, such as aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Peptic ulcers may be linked to cancer and other diseases.
Definition (MSH) Ulcer that occurs in the regions of the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT which come into contact with GASTRIC JUICE containing PEPSIN and GASTRIC ACID. It occurs when there are defects in the MUCOSA barrier. The common forms of peptic ulcers are associated with HELICOBACTER PYLORI and the consumption of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS).
Definition (CSP) local defect produced by the sloughing of inflammatory necrotic tissue that occurs in the regions of the gastrointestinal tract which come into contact with gastric juice; occurs when there are defects in the mucosa barrier; common forms of peptic ulcers are associated with Helicobacter pylori and the consumption of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs.
