What are erosions in duadeam, is that stomach cancer?

Not likely: Likely acid induced. If you had an EGD for diagnosis these lesions are usually biopsied. Talk to your gastroenterologist about your worries.

Precursor to ulcer: The duodenum is the channel exiting the stomach of the site of duodenal ulcers. Erosions are the beginning of peptic ulcer disease and respond well to medical therapy. Your gastroenterologist is your best source for treatment
