title: [Helicobacter and lymphoma].
abstract: The gastrointestinal tract represents the most common extranodal site of malignant non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Epidemiological, histomorphological, molecular biological and experimental animal studies undoubtedly underline the important role of Helicobacter pylori for the development and progression of primary gastric lymphoma of MALT (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue). Eradication of Helicobacter pylori is an important therapeutic option in low-grade gastric, MALT lymphoma of localized stage E I.
