1- Gastric mucosa showing superficial erosions and marked infiltration by lymphocytes and plasma cells. Lymphocytes aggregate in some foci to form lymphoid follicles with active germinal centers. Neutrophils are seen infiltrating glands thus indicating activity. H. pylori characteristic forms are present. Focal intestinal metaplasia are noted, however, no evidence of atypia or malignancy.
2- Intact colonic mucosa with mild reduction in the number of mucigenic cells and mild infiltration by lymphocytes, plasma cells and neutrophils. However, crypt abscesses are not identified. No evidence of atypical or malignant cells.
Erosive gastropathy, and scattered colonic mucosal congestion.
1- Soft tissue fragments collectively measured 0.8 cm, totally embedded.
