Giant hypertrophic gastritis is characterized by extensive thickening of the gastric wall due to excessive proliferation of the gastric mucosa. It was first described by Ménétrier in 1888, hence also known as Ménétrier's disease. Patients with giant hypertrophic gastritis commonly present with nausea, loss of appetite, and upper abdominal pain, which may be relieved after meals.
