Abstract
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic hemolytic disorder characterized by the presence of crescent-shaped red blood cells. Abdominal pain is the common presenting symptom in adults with SCD. Among the patients who are not in crisis, it is estimated that one third of patients with homozygous SCD with chronic recurrent epigastric pain has endoscopic evidence of peptic ulcer disease.

Aims and Objectives: This study was undertaken with an aim to analyze the incidence and management of acid peptic disorders among SCD patients in Western Odisha.

Materials and Methods: A prospective study was done considering 88 homozygous SCD patients. All the patients underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGIE) with gastric antral biopsy and rapid urease test (RUT). Cases with Helicobacter pylori were administered a 14 days course of three drug regimen of anti H. pylori drugs and followed-up to 6 weeks of beginning the treatment with repeat UGIE and RUT.

Results: Out of 88 cases, 19 cases had duodenal ulcer (21.6%) which was significantly high than patients with gastric ulcer (13.6%). Other findings were gastroesophageal reflux disease and gastritis. About 93.5% of patients became RUT negative after taking anti H. pylori medication.

Conclusion: SCD patients with acid peptic disorder constitute a sizeable proportion of patients attending surgical outpatient department and indoor department of surgery. Conservative treatment with life style modification can effectively improve the symptoms of acid peptic disease.

Key words: Sickle Cell Disease; Acid Peptic Disorder; Helicobacter pylori; Rapid Urease Test
