Özet

Objective: Guidelines recommend endoscopic surveillance for patients with extensive atrophy/intestinal metaplasia (IM), but follow-up is not recommended for patients with atrophy/IM restricted to the antrum. We evaluated the risk of neoplastic lesions in patients with antrum-restricted IM to determine whether surveillance endoscopy is necessary.
