Abstract
Lymphocytic gastritis is a histopathological entity of unknown aetiology which is
characterized by dense surface and foveolar epithelial T-cell infiltration. We report
here an uncommon clinical presentation in a young female presenting with unexplained
recurrent weight loss and peripheral oedema. Endoscopic and histological features
before and after successful therapy with omeprazole are described.
