If chronic atrophic gastritis is accompanied by mild intestinal metaplasia during enteroscopy, it must be taken seriously. metaplasia is an irreversible pathological change caused by long-term gastric mucosal atrophy. In this case, it is recommended to use drugs for intervention and follow up regularly, because after intestinal metaplasia is shown, if no intervention is carried out, it may cause precancerous lesions and even gastric cancer. Clinically, chronic atrophic gastritis still has a certain probability of cancer, so gastroscopy once every six months, biopsy to understand the changes in the condition, once the precancerous lesions are shown, it is recommended to take surgery as soon as possible.
