Excellent podcast with Dr. Kankeu Fonkoua. Like Dr. GazeIka, I did not know we had a Stomach Cancer Awareness Month. I will help spread the word. Would Dr. Fonkoua be able to speak to the preventive measures for preventing the progression of chronic/active gastritis with focal intestinal metaplasia in the gastric mucosa (created in the setting of a Billroth II surgery)? Thank you.

Hi @jgc, prevention of intestinal metaplasia is discussed in this article:
- Intestinal Metaplasia https://www.healthline.com/health/intestinal-metaplasia

And you may be interested in the practice guidelines of the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA)
- AGA Clinical Practice Guidelines on Management of Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia https://www.gastrojournal.org/article/S0016-5085(19)41888-X/fulltext

Do you or a family member have intestinal metaplasia?
