Symptomatic upper gastrointestinal ulcers are caused by cardiovascular diseases, central nervous system injuries, burns, severe intoxication, thoracic surgery, medication, and the administration of antitetanus serum. Of the clinical features of these ulcers, the absence of ulcerative history, absence of pain and dyspeptic disorders, except vomiting, and the sterility of the physical examination data should be noted. Therefore, these ulcers are undoubtedly much more common than they are diagnosed.</p>Kazan Medical archiveКазанский медицинский архив
