Abstract
The present article discusses the risk factors for acute and chronic multiple gastric ulcers. Acute multiple ulcers are often stress ulcers that occur in critically ill patients, as well as ulcers that occur when taking medications (fi rst of all nonsteroidal anti-infl ammatory drugs). Acute multiple ulcers are often manifested by gastrointestinal bleeding (hematemesis, melena). Prevention of acute multiple gastric ulcers involves the timely appointment of proton pump inhibitors in the presence of risk factors for their occurrence. In cases of chronic multiple gastric ulcers, the exclusion infi ltrative ulcerative gastric cancer, MALT-lymphoma, B-cell lymphoma, stenosis of the abdominal trunk and other diseases is of great importance
