“…Gastroscopic and histopathological examinations of samples of gastric mucosa taken during endoscopy are the two most widely used tools to detect gastritis in dogs and cats [ 2 – 6 , 8 , 10 ].…”

“…A few studies in veterinary medicine have outlined the criteria for the endoscopic assessment of gastric inflammatory lesions in dogs [ 2 , 5 , 10 ], while only one study has used the endoscopic division of the Sydney system [ 3 ]. Since the Sydney system classifies inflammatory changes based on their character and location in the stomach, it is easier for clinicians to interpret the changes [ 3 , 14 , 16 , 18 ].…”

“…This procedure indicates the character and extent of the lesions, while allowing to identify the sites for collecting gastric mucosal samples. For this reason, gastroscopy and histopathological examination of gastric mucosal samples are considered as the gold standard for the diagnosis of gastritis [ 2 – 10 ].…”

“…In veterinary medicine, at present, there are no specific morphological standards available for diagnosing the causes of gastritis and assessing its severity [ 2 – 6 , 8 , 10 – 13 ]. Therefore, many clinicians and veterinary pathologists consider the histopathological examination results of gastric mucosal samples to be controversial and inconclusive, which negatively affects the selection of treatment [ 5 ].…”

“…Evaluating the correlation between the results of gastroscopic and histological examinations of gastric mucosal samples taken during endoscopy is of great significance [ 2 , 3 ]. However, in many cases, it is difficult to establish such a correlation, possibly due to the lack of standard protocols for simultaneous macroscopic assessment of the gastric mucosa and histopathological examination of the mucosal samples [ 2 , 3 , 10 ].…”

Background The Sydney system for assessing inflammatory lesions in the gastric mucosa is based on endoscopic and histological examinations. This study aimed to apply the Sydney system to diagnose gastritis in dogs. The study also compared the results of endoscopic and histological examinations conducted on gastric mucosal biopsy specimens. A total of 56 dogs with chronic vomiting were analyzed in the study. The physical appearance of the gastric mucosa was assessed through endoscopic examination, while the severity of the gastric inflammation, inflammation activity, glandular atrophy, and intestinal metaplasia were assessed by histopathological examination. Results The endoscopic examination confirmed the presence of inflammatory lesions affecting the gastric corpus and pylorus in all the dogs, although the severity of these lesions differed between the individuals. Reflux gastritis was the most commonly observed gastric inflammation. In the histopathological examination of the gastric mucosal samples, inflammatory lesions were found in the gastric corpus of 53 dogs, while 55 dogs had lesions in the pylorus. This corresponds to a 96.4% agreement between the methods. Conclusions The Sydney system is a useful tool for macroscopic and microscopic assessment of changes in the gastric mucosa as it enables the determination of inflammation type and severity, which helps the canine gastroenterologists to reliably compare the results of the tests performed in different facilities. Besides, the use of the Sydney system in diagnosing lesions facilitates the selection and effective monitoring of treatment. However, despite a high rate of agreement between the results of endoscopic and histopathological examinations, it is recommended to use both these methods for the assessment of the gastric mucosa in dogs.

OBJECTIVE To compare clinical, endoscopic, and histopathologic features between dogs with chronic gastritis (CG) with and without lymphofollicular hyperplasia (LFH). ANIMALS 64 and 56 dogs with CG with (cases) and without (controls) LFH, respectively. PROCEDURES The medical record database of a referral clinic was searched to identify dogs that underwent endoscopic examination of the upper portion of the gastrointestinal tract and were subsequently determined to have CG with or without LFH between October 2006 and February 2011. Signalment and clinical, endoscopic, and histologic findings were compared between cases and controls. Logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with CG with LFH. RESULTS Compared with controls, cases were significantly younger and more likely to be of a brachycephalic phenotype. The proportions of dogs with a poor body condition or diarrhea were significantly lower and the proportions of dogs with inspiratory dyspnea, exercise intolerance, or hyperemia and discoloration of the gastric mucosa were significantly higher for the case group, compared with the control group. Inspiratory dyspnea, gastric mucosal hyperemia, and gastritis severity were positively associated, whereas poor body condition was negatively associated, with CG with LFH on multivariable logistic regression. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE The strong positive association between inspiratory dyspnea and CG with LFH suggested that the condition may be a consequence of an increase in negative intrathoracic pressure rather than a distinct clinical entity. Prospective studies are warranted to elucidate the mechanism by which inspiratory dyspnea contributes to the development of CG with LFH.
