title: [Prevalence and transmission pathways of the pyloric Helicobacter infection. Transmission from person to person (literature review)].

Knowledge of these data is necessary for its prevention. Subjects--available literature, mainly English-language articles. There were separated two modes of transmission of Helicobacter pylori: vertical--the spread of infection from older to younger and horizontal--by contact between persons outside of the family. Basis statements. There is abundant evidence confirming the gastro-oral, oral-oral and fecal-oral transmission of H. pylori. To prevent the transmission of infection from person to person and the development of related diseases an essential measure is elibiotics.
