Is it true that peptic ulcers can require surgical treatment?
Unclear. Multiple peer-reviewed sources show that complicated peptic ulcers — perforation, bleeding, obstruction, or intractable disease — are managed surgically, and one guideline lists surgical treatment among the topics it covers. None of the items states the general proposition that peptic ulcers as a class can require surgery; each covers only a complication subset or a single cohort.
