title: [Helicobacter pylori and gastroduodenal disease in our patients: 2-year experience].
abstract: Primary gastritis, duodenitis, peptic ulcer of stomach and duodenum are no longer considered to be disorders of the balance of secretion of acid and immune responses of the gastric mucose but it is thought to be caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. One of the most important factor causign the malignant gastric diseases such as carcinoma and non-Hodgkins MALT Lymphoma is an early infection by this spiral gram-negative bacterium. We performed byopsi of the gastric mucose in 80 of our patients. Endoscopic and histological results showed that 74 patients had gastritis 6 others had normal results. The highest incidence of disease was found in children of 11 to 14 years of age because 67.4% were girls and 22.4% were boys of this age. Ethiological analysis of patients with gastritis showed that Helicobacter pylori was isolated in bioptic material of 46 patients while results of other 28 patients were negative.
