However if there is inflammation in the duodenal biopsies (and especially if more severe than stomach) I would probably be more inclined to think it is part of a wider GI disease (eg IBD etc).

&lt;p&gt; what did the small intestine look like in your case? And is there any evidence of a wider GI disease (imaging/cobalamin etc)?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Helicobacter treatment</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/103507?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 29 Dec 2013 15:41:20 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:23757146-c1de-4b6b-a7a6-619d8e939d2d</guid><dc:creator>Hanna Bennett</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;interesting - we had one confirmed on endoscopy last week, 1 month history of vomiting and weight loss - associated histopath was lymphoid gastritis - would you go looking for other causes?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Helicobacter treatment</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/103370?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 22 Dec 2013 08:53:33 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:db379e95-56ef-48f6-beba-30cacff3761e</guid><dc:creator>Andrew Kent</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;We rarely treat it but depends entirely on the accompanying histopathology. And yes the recurrence rate is high which is another reason that the benefit of treatment is questionable. Do you have a specific case in mind?
