Endoscopic and Histopathologic Picture of Gastric Mucosa With Helicobacter Pylori Infection

Abstract

Background Helicobacter pylori (HP) can colonise beneath layer of mucous on the surface of gastric epithelial cells caused chronic infection more than 95% at antrum (chronic antral inflamation) besides corpus with spreading inequitably. This inflamation can cause gastric lession as a Gastritis, Gastric Ulcer (GU), Cancer of Duodenal Ulcer (DU). Absence of chronic antral inflamation (increased number of mononuclear cells in lamina propia) is a highly specific methode to exclude H. pylori infection. Objective To investigated endoscopic mucosal lesion (Gastritis, GU, Cancer or DU) and histologic picture of gastric mucosal H. pylori infection. Methods This study was performed in 50 patient with gastroscopic lesion (Gastritis, GU,Cancer or DU) and CLO test positive. H. pylori was evaluated by modified Giemsa staining and gastritis by Haemotoxiline and eosin (H and E) staining in the antrum and corpus. Result Reported in The Third Western Pasific Helicobacter Congress, June 22‐24 Bali Indonesia.
