case_images: Case n.1 histological examination of gastric biopsies. At morphological analysis, fundic mucosa showed severe chronic gastritis, characterized by complete atrophy of the oxyntic glands and intestinal metaplasia, and lymphoplasmacytic predominant inflammatory infiltrate (A, H&E stain, 10x). Imunohistochemical staining for chromogranin A of the same biopsy demonstrated linear and micronodular hyperplasia of the ECL cells (B, chromogranin A stain, 20x).

case_images: Case n.2 histological examination of gastric biopsies. At morphological analysis, fundic mucosa showed mild chronic gastritis, characterized by complete atrophy of the oxyntic glands and pseudopyloric metaplasia (A, H&E stain, 10x). Imunohistochemical staining for chromogranin A of the same biopsy demonstrated linear and micronodular ECL cell hyperplasia (B, chromogranin A stain, 10x).
