Achilia of the stomach
Achilia of the stomach (achylia gastrica; a- - negative part + Greek chylos - juice; synonym: apepsia) - pathological condition; characterized by the absence of release of free hydrochloric acid and enzymes by the gastric mucosa.
There are the following types of stomach achilia:
- Histamine-resistant - preserved when secretion is stimulated by histamine;
- Idiopathic (istor.; idiopathica) - occurs due to congenital functional weakness of the glandular apparatus of the stomach;
- Organic (organica) - due to irreversible damage to the gastric glands; observed against the background of atrophic gastritis (primary organic gastric achilia), as well as with intoxication, neoplasms and other diseases (secondary organic gastric achilia);
- Functional (functionalis) - temporary achilia of the stomach; develops without organic lesions of the glandular apparatus of the stomach; most often due to reflex inhibition of gastric secretion.
