Recent experience with 40 patients with the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome at all Mayo Clinic suggests that traditional clinical criteria for diagnosis are often absent or invalid. Patients are younger have a shorter duration of symptoms, and often present without prior gastric surgery. Clinical, roentgenographic, and endoscopic findings indistinguishable from those of idiopathic duodenal ulcer or erosive duodenitis were the only presenting features in half of the patients in this series. Therefore, increased diagnostic use of serum levels of gastrin and gastric analysis appears desirable, particularly in patients selected for elective surgical treatment of duodenal ulcer disease, because specific therapeutic approaches may be required.
