62 Chernobyl wreckers with erosive gastroduodenitis (50 cases) and ulc
er (12 cases) were admitted to hospital where they received standard d
rugs and local He-Ne laser treatment of erosions and ulcer located in
tile antral stomach and duodenal bulb. Histological, bacterioscopic, m
orphometric and immunohistochemical examinations have identified chron

thelization of erosions was not accompanied by normalization of morpho
metric and immunohistochemical parameters. This suggests a high risk o
f recurrences.
