Overview
Gastritis may be classified according to chronicity, into two categories: acute and chronic. Gastritis may also be classified by pathology/pathophysiology into subtypes by proposed classification systems such as the updated Sydney system [*REF] or the Operative Link for Gastritis Assessment [OLGA] staging system [*REF].
Classification
Classification by chronicity:
- Acute gastritis: a sudden inflammation of the lining of the stomach.
- Chronic gastritis: inflammation of the lining of the stomach that persists for a long time.
