Atrophic gastritis (also known as Type A or Type B Gastritis more specifically) is a process of chronic inflammation of the stomach mucosa, leading to loss of gastric glandular cells and their eventual replacement by intestinal and fibrous tissues.ype A gastritis primarily affects the body/fundus of the stomach, and is more common with pernicious anemia. Type B gastritis primarily affects the antrum, and is more common with H. pylori infection.
Gastric dilatation volvulus (GDV), also known as twisted stomach or gastric torsion, is a medical condition in which the stomach becomes overstretched and rotated by excessive gas content. The word bloat is often used as a general term to mean gas distension without stomach torsion (a normal change after eating), or to refer to GDV.
