Abstract

Helicobacter pylori is an important cause of chronic active gastritis and is strongly associated with peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer. H. pylori colonizes the surface of the gastric epithelium with production of a number of factors, resulting in inflammation and an altered mucosa. H. pylori infection occurs world-wide and the mode of transmission most likely is from human to human via the fecal-oral and/or the oral-oral route. Treatment and, in the future, prevention of this infection may result in a marked diminution of upper gastrointestinal tract disease.
