Laparoscopic evaluation of gastroduodenal ulceration before and after treatment with omeprazole or famotidin

ABSTRACT

86 patients (male: 56) with gastroduodenal ulceration divided into 2 groups: group A - patients treated by omeprazole and group B- patients treated by famotidine. The results of laparoscopic examination have shown that the gastroduodenal ulceration can be radically treated by omeprazole or famotidine in combination with antibiotics in case of gastroduodenal ulceration with H. pylori: 85.1-92.3% of patients had no pain after 4 weeks of the treatment and 100% of patients in group A and 93.61% of patients in group B had scar healing.
