ABSTRACT
The radiologic and endoscopic studies in 30 lesions of 30 gastric peptic ulcers associated with candida infection diagnosed histologically and the follow-up studies in 23 lesions of 23 patients over period of 6 months to 12 years were performed. 1. The ratio of male to female was 51, 43 per cents were found over 7th decade and 33 per cents with systemic diseases. 2. Although the ulcers showed no characteristic endoscopic and radiologic features, half of themn were il in depth (54 per cents), with unclear border (60 per cents). 3. The curability of gastric ulcers was low with 30 per cents cured in 6 months or more of follow-up period. 4.
