Abstract

Twenty-one gastric biopsies were performed on 10 patients with hookworm disease. Seven of the patients had diffuse gastric lesions, 2, gastritis, and 5, atrophic gastritis. Serial biopsy studies after correction of the anemia and suppression of the worm burden revealed no significant reversal of the gastric lesions.
