Sažetak
In the prospective investigation on the Internal Clinic of General Hospital Osijek 3950 endoscopic examinations has been done and in 238 patients duodenal erosions has been found. In 99 patients duodenal erosions coexist with ulcerative peptic disease. The patients with duodenal erosions (in both groups) were predominantly between 30 and 59 years old. The ratio of men to woman in patients with autonomous erosions was 4,8:1, and in patients with erosions connected with ulcerative peptic disease was 6,1:1. In 143 patients duodenal erosions werde disseminated and in 81 patients were zonally disributed (mainly in the anterior and posterior walls). In 14 patients single erosions have been found. In both groups duodenal erosions were mainly observed in autumn, and rarely in summer. The intake of alcohol, coffe and cigarettes were quite similar in patients with duodenal erosions and in the general population submitted to endoscopic examinations. In conclusion, the analysis of our data presen epidemiological characteristics of duodenal erosions very similar to those pertaining to duodenal ulcer and therefore this pathology has to be included in the wide chapter of the peptic diseases.
