According to special, but not always complete reports and relevant studies, one in ten adult residents of Russia suffers from a particular digestive system disease (P. Grigoryev // Med. Newspaper. - 1996. - April 24). Their timely identification was facilitated by the widespread introduction of endoscopic studies into clinical practice using standardized methods for evaluating the results. At the same time, endoscopic examinations are still often carried out without necessarily obtaining a biopsy for subsequent histological and, more importantly, immunohistochemical studies. The latter allows you to more objectively judge the etiological causes of the disease, among which endocrine occupy a special place.
