Esophagogastroduodenoscopy for peptic ulcer and cancer

Background/aims: The purpose of this trial was to evaluate outcomes of endoscopic findings in our patients with peptic ulcer and cancer incidence. Material and Methods: The records of 5306 esophagogastroduodenoscopy procedures performed between April 1998 and July 2004 in the Internal Medicine Clinic, Endoscopy Unit, of Vakif Gureba Training Hospital were evaluated retrospectively. Results: 2538 (47.8%) of the patients were male and 2774 (52.2%) female; the mean age was 48.28 (range: 13-94 years). The most common findings were normal/antral gastritis in 3166 patients (59.6%), duodenal ulcer in 790 (14.8%) and esophagitis in 395 (7.4%). Patients tolerated the procedure without sedation or complication. Conclusions: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy was a well-tolerated procedure without sedation or complication. We evaluated the incidences of malignancy as 0.33% for the esophagus, 1.75% for the stomach and 0.09% for the duodenum.
