Conclusion
Gastroscopic investigation of 100 patients with acute virus hepatitis, and microscopic study of gastric mucosa removed by biopsy in 25 revealed no more disease than was found in a similar number of control subjects. It is concluded that the morphology of the gastric mucosa is not affected adversely during acute virus hepatitis.
