Stomach, Antrum, Biopsy:

Stomach, Body, Biopsy:

===IELs in duodenum===
<pre>
A. Duodenum, Biopsy:
- Small bowel mucosa with increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, villous
  architecture and crypt architecture within normal limits, see comment.
- NEGATIVE for acute duodenitis.
- NEGATIVE for dysplasia.
B. Stomach, Biopsy:
- Body-type gastric mucosa with moderate chronic active inflammation
  and abundant HELICOBACTER-LIKE ORGANISMS.
- NEGATIVE for intestinal metaplasia.
- NEGATIVE for dysplasia and NEGATIVE for malignancy.
COMMENT:
There are approximately 45 lymphocytes/100 enterocytes. Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) is a nonspecific finding. IELs are seen in celiac disease and inflammatory bowel disease; however, may be explained by the Helicobacter-like organisms found in the stomach. Clinical correlation is suggested.
</pre>
=====Alternate comment=====
<pre>
Comment:
Focally, there are approximately 50 lymphocytes/100 enterocytes. Increased intraepithelial
lymphocytes is a nonspecific finding that may be seen in a number of conditions, including
infections (e.g. Helicobacter gastritis), and autoimmune disorders (e.g. Crohn's disease, celiac disease). In this case, it may be explained by the Helicobacter-like organisms found in the stomach. Clinical correlation is suggested.

Comment:
The Helicobacter-like organisms have an appearance similar to crinkle cut French fries; this suggests the organisms are H. heilmannii.
