title: [Helicobacter pylori infection in children].
abstract: Approximately 10 per cent of all schoolchildren have recurrent stomach pain, and 50 per cent of those referred to hospital for gastralgia can be expected to have persistent problems as adults. Some of these children might be helped by diagnosis and treatment. The lack of large controlled studies of the importance of H pylori in childhood needs to be remedied, with a view to diagnosis and treatment in the future.
