7. 4. Ultrasound guided Bx.
- pancreas is dense. Stone about 0.8cm was found at (R) kidney.
- 5cm ulcer was found at the lesser curvature of stomach and Bx was taken for histological
analysis.
5. Endoscopy
- 5cm ulcer was found at the lesser curvature of stomach with significant inflammation filled
with fibrin.
J) Differential diagnosis
• Stomach ulcer
• Functional abdominal pain
• Parasitic infection
Stomach ulcer
Pt experiences strong epigastic pain before eating with is characteristic in duodenal ulcer but in
some cases can be occur in stomach ulcer. The pain is due to dietary intakes which is common in
any peptic ulcer. US and endoscopy test showed ulcer at lesser curvature of stomach and thus
ruling out duodenal ulcer.
Functional abdominal pain
Pt experiences dull pain in the epigastric region which is a characteristic of functional abdominal
pain. However, pt says he doesn’t undergo any stress and seems to be calm. Pt also has pain that
occurs only before meal and due to oily intakes, thus ruling out functional abdominal pain.
Parasitic infections
Parasitic infections can cause pain in the abdominal pain. This pain can be dull or intense.
However, this pain is independent of food intake and occurs intensively at night. Pt has pain only
before meal. Urine test showed absence Lamblia therefore it can’t be parasitic infections
K) Clinical diagnosis
Main: Duodenal ulcer
Complications: Pancreatitis and kidney stone
Accompanying diseases: No
Pt is having pancreatitis and right kidney stone. Pt has positive pain symptoms in Chauffard’s
zone which is a typical indication of pancreatitis. Pt’s white blood count which is usually an
inflammation indicator is within the normal range. The US test has diagnosed increased in
density of pancreas indication inflammation of pancreas. Instrumental test such as the endoscopy
has indicated signs of stomach ulcer where 5cm of ulcer was found at the lesser curvature and
also 0.8cm of right kidney stone. A high level of amylase indicates pancreatitis. Therefore, pt is
having stomach ulcer with accompanied disease of pancreatitis and kidney stone.

8. M) Treatment of patient
Diet
-Pt is advised to follow a healthy diet comprising all main nutrients such as carbohydrate,
protein, vitamins and fat in healthy proportions. He should reduce his fatty food intake.
Medication Regime
1. Proton pump inhibitory : Omeprazole (20 mg PO qd)
2. Antihistamine, H2 blocker :
Ranitidine.
Famotidine (Initial: 40 mg PO hs, Maintenance: 20 mg PO hs)
3. Antimicrobial :
Metronidazole 400mg + Clarithromycin 500mg (both are given twice daily)
N) Prognosis (for work and life)
-Patient has a good prognosis for work and life if he continues to maintain a healthy lifestyle
and undergo his treatment regime properly.
