Gastric Ulcer
This stomach ulcer is clean and benign appearing which means
it is probably not malignant or cancerous. The lining of the
stomach is healthy and pink. The black hole in the background is
the pylorus which is the outlet to the stomach. This particular
ulcer occurred because the patient was taking an arthritis
medicine called an NSAID (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug).
Examples of these medications are ibuprofen, Naprosyn, Motrin,
Advil, Voltaren and Feldene. The bacteria, H. pylori, which also
can cause stomach ulcers, was not found.
