Gastroenterology Tunes

Gastritis
(in the style of the Beach Boys' "Kokomo")

Erosions, neutrophils, baby I’ve got hemorrhage
I drank my alcohol, cells are atypical
With CMV I got inclusions in nuclei
And chronically had H pyloriiiiii
There’s a thing called Gastritis
That’s inflammation in your stomach mucosa
It’s called gastritis

A bandlike infiltrate with lymphocytes and plasma cells
In lamina propria. It’s chronic H Pylori
It leads to atrophy, with very small mucosa
And metaplastic changes as well

I’ve got a granuloma (work in progress)
(In the style of a "I'm getting married in the morning")

I’ve got a granuloma
It's not specific just for Crohn’s
Maybe it’s sarcoid, TB, or Histo
vasculitis or infectious, too

Possibly something idiopathic
Or a reaction to foreign things!
