Because duodenal ulcers are generally not cancerous, duodenal bulbous erosions usually do not require biopsy.
Duodenal bulbous erosion is a gastroscopic finding of erosion of the mucosa of the duodenal bulb, which, if left untreated, can develop into duodenal bulbous ulcers, which are usually non-cancerous and therefore usually do not require biopsy.
Although duodenal bulb ulcers are generally non-cancerous, they are prone to bleeding, perforation and other serious adverse effects because of the thin wall of the duodenum, so they require timely drug treatment to inhibit gastric acid secretion, eradicate Helicobacter pylori, and protect the gastric mucosa, as well as endoscopic treatment and surgery if necessary.
If the diagnosis of duodenal ulcer is confirmed, it is recommended to decide the specific treatment plan under the guidance of the doctor to avoid delay.
