A 25-year-old woman enters the hospital with persistent diarrhea and abdominal pain. An upper gastrointestinal radiologic series suggests the presence of a duodenal ulcer, which is confirmed by endoscopy. The patient's basal rate of secretion of gastric HCl is about 12 mmole/hr (the normal range is 1 to 5 mmole/hr). The patient's gastrin level is 1145 pg/ml (the normal range is 50 to 150 pg/ml). When the patient's gastric juice is removed via a tube during a 24 hour period, the diarrhea is corrected. The patient also has moderate steatorrhea (excess fat in the stool). After a test meal, the patient's gastrin level is immediately tested and does not increase any more than the already high 1145 pg/ml. In the average normal individual, the same meal produces a doubling of gastrin levels. Infusion of exogenous secretin results in a peak serum gastrin level that is three times the basal level! In normal individuals, infusion of secretin results in a reduction of gastrin. The patient's rate of HCL secretion can be brought to lower levels by treatment with a histamine receptor blocker called cimetidine. However, the dose of cimetidine required to do this is several times greater than that usually used for patients with duodenal ulcers. Administration of an acetylcholine blocker enhances the effect of cimetidine but still requires large doses. A single daily dose of an H+, K+ ATPase blocker called omeprazole is effective in bringing HCL secretion to below normal levels.Why does the patient have a duodenal ulcer?

The amount of HCL leaving the stomach may be too great to be neutralized by pancreatic secretions
