Histopathological changes in the gastroduodenal mucosa of children with functional dyspepsia.

CONCLUSIONS: A significant proportion of children with FD do not show chronic or active inflammation, but have increased mast cell density and eosinophil density in the stomach and duodenum mucosa. Our study adds functional dyspepsia to the list of various abnormalities that have increased gastroduodenal mucosal elevations of eosinophils and/or mast cells. PMID: 30078402 [PubMed - in process]
