Abstract
|
|
|
Secondary peptic ulceration and gastritis have been known to be associated with stress,
exogenous agents, drugs or infection.
Salicylate (aspirin) ingestion has been known to be associated with increased incidence
of gastric ulcer and more frequently as the cause of hemorrhagic gastric erosions and
gastritis. Some medications such as tetracyclines and iron preparations have been
associated with ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract. Chemotherapeutic agents including
cytoxan and methotrexate also have been implicated in the development of mucosal and
gastrointestinal ulcers.
We have experienced two cases of hemorrhagic gastric ulcers due to creosote ingestion
in a 13 month and a 45 year old boys. Creosote is a main component of one of the
popular digestives, Jungrohwan in Japan and Korea
