Intestinal metaplasia (IM) foci in 19 antral and 14 fundal gastric biopsies from patients with chronic
atrophic gastritis
were studied immunohistochemically for the presence of
CALLA antigen
. In only 2 cases were metaplastic glands completely negative, in 14 cases they were all positive, and in 17 cases variable proportions of
CALLA
positive and negative metaplastic glands were present. Complete IM seems to be less frequent than the incomplete type when the presence of
CALLA
is taken in consideration.
CALLA
is obviously a much better marker for complete or incomplete small IM. The possible importance of the presence of
CALLA
in IM foci for the future development of gastric cancer is discussed.
