Chronic superficial erosive gastritis (with atrophy) is not chronic atrophic gastritis. Chronic superficial erosive gastritis or chronic superficial gastritis may be caused by espresso stimulation, alcoholism, bile reflux or Helicobacter pylori infection, in which the patient’s gastric mucosa undergoes chronic superficial inflammation, and accompanied by atrophy means that the gastric mucosa undergoes a certain amount of atrophy. Chronic atrophic gastritis may also be caused by Helicobacter pylori infection, resulting in mucosal epithelium and glands atrophy, gastric mucosa thinning, but there is no gastric mucosal erosion, and the former is different. However, both chronic superficial erosive gastritis (with atrophy) and chronic atrophic gastritis may have symptoms of indigestion, which are clinically similar and need to be distinguished by gastroscopy. It is recommended to go to the hospital in time to identify the disease and then targeted treatment.
