Biopsy is recommended for atrophic gastritis with erosion to determine the nature of the erosion and to rule out early gastric cancer.
1. Evaluation of atrophic gastritis: atrophic gastritis with erosion needs to take pathological tissue for biopsy to monitor the severity of atrophic gastritis and the progress of erosion in different parts.
2. Rule out early gastric cancer: atrophic gastritis is a precancerous lesion of gastric cancer, and the purpose of biopsy is to rule out early gastric cancer and atypical hyperplasia or intestinal epithelial hyperplasia. Atrophic gastritis can develop into gastric cancer in some patients. There is no specific drug for treating atrophic gastritis, and regular review of gastroscopy is needed for timely treatment.
If there is an abnormal biopsy result, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time to clarify the cause of the disease with the help of the doctor and carry out targeted treatment or therapy.
