title: [B-cell lymphoma (MALToma) of the stomach and Helicobacter pylori infection].
abstract: The authors, after illustrating physiopathologic aspects of gastric MALTomas, examine the H.P. infections and the possible relations between this kind of bacterium and gastric MALTomas. They hypothesize that H.P. infection represents an important predisposition to gastric lymphoma, due to anatomopathological modifications over gastric mucosa. They conclude that a decreasing of gastric lymphoma could be correlatable an opportune eradication of H.P. despite of at moment it's impossible hypothesize a marked decreasing of lymphoma by an eradication of H.P.
