Typically located in the proximal stomach near the esophagogastric junction, Dieulafoy's lesions can also occur throughout the whole gastrointestinal tract, including the oesophagus, small bowel, and colon. Rare cases have been reported in the respiratory tract. Dieulafoy's lesion accounts for approximately 3.5% of gastrointestinal bleeding cases, with mortality rates ranging from 23 to 79%, mainly because of the risk of rebleeding and surgical complications. The aetiology of Dieulafoy's lesion remains unclear, despite congenital vessel dilation and stress-induced factors have been invoked. Common symptoms include haematemesis, melena, and signs of acute arterial bleeding; nevertheless, the diagnosis is often challenging because of intermittent haemorrhage. Endoscopic examination typically reveals a pigmented protuberance without ulceration; however, excessive bleeding or small lesion size may hinder detection. Early endoscopy (within 12 h) significantly improves diagnostic accuracy. Therapeutic approaches may differ in relation to the presentation and lesion location. Endoscopic haemostasis is the preferred technique, achieving success in nearly 90% of cases. Haemostatic procedures include injective, thermal, and mechanical methods. Angiographic embolisation or surgery are limited in cases of endoscopic treatment failure. Advances in endoscopic therapy have reduced Dieulafoy's lesion-related mortality from 80 to 8.6%, despite rebleeding remains a concern. A multidisciplinary approach, combining endoscopy, radiology, and surgery when necessary, is crucial for optimal management, thus improving patient outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":11999,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology","volume":"38 9","pages":"995-1000"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148673142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies published between 2010 and 2024 to evaluate gastric cancer risk in gastric atrophy, with stratification by anatomical distribution. Ten studies comprising 21 006 patients were included. Pooled analysis demonstrated a markedly increased risk of gastric cancer in gastric atrophy, with a standardised incidence ratio of 20.7 (95% confidence interval: 14.0-30.2). Subgroup analysis confirmed significantly higher risk with extensive gastric atrophy compared with antral-predominant disease (pooled odds ratio: 0.27), supporting current guideline stratification. We also reviewed studies excluded from pooled analysis, including several large European cohorts that initially appeared eligible but failed on methodological grounds. Common limitations included inadequate distinction between gastric atrophy and intestinal metaplasia, lack of stratification between autoimmune and Helicobacter pylori -associated atrophy, and use of Operative Link staging systems without atrophy-specific outcomes. These exclusions highlight the fragility of the Western evidence base and its limited ability to inform surveillance recommendations. Our findings extend prior meta-analyses by incorporating topography-specific risk estimates and explicitly identifying evidence gaps in Western populations. Gastric atrophy confers a markedly increased risk of gastric cancer, particularly when extensive. Standardised biopsy mapping and atrophy-specific reporting are needed to refine surveillance strategies and tailor guidelines to regional risk profiles. Current surveillance recommendations for distal gastric atrophy in low-risk Western populations should be applied cautiously, given the evidence and absence of robust prospective data.</p>","PeriodicalId":11999,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology","volume":" ","pages":"1041-1051"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147812689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
