Acute and chronic gastritis are broadly discussed along with their types including phlegmonous gastritis, emphysematous gastritis, environmental and autoimmune metaplastic atrophic gastritis. Moreover, infectious gastritis, autoimmune gastritis, and granulomatous gastritis are delineated. Subsequently, what are the causes that give rise to these inflammations are also elaborated.
