“…The gastroduodenal pathologies found in the study are almost the same as those reported in other African studies [13,14,17]. This is the case, for example, of Ankouane et al in Cameroon, in a study on the epidemiology of Hp infection in 2013, which found 79.5% of gastritis, 15.8% of duodenal ulcer and 11.1% peptic oesophagitis.…”

Introduction: Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is a public health problem. The contamination is mainly in childhood, oro-oral or fecal-oral. The objective is to determine the epidemiological, clinical and endoscopic profile of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection in symptomatic patients in Brazzaville in order to improve the management of Hp-infected persons in Congo. Patients and Method: This was a cross-sectional and analytical study, conducted from January to May 2018, in two digestive endoscopy centers in Brazzaville. Included were symptomatic patients referred for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (HRE). The frequency of Helicobacter pylori infection was determined from two tests, the rapid urease test and the Hp antigen test in the stool. The risk factors for contamination, digestive symptoms and gastroduodenal diseases associated with Helicobacter pylori infection were studied. Results: During the study, 137 consenting patients were included, including 62 men and 75 women; the sex ratio was 0.8. The average age was 46 years, the extreme 18 and 88 years. Epigastralgia was the most common reason for consultation. Upper digestive endoscopy was normal in most cases (43%), erosive and erythematous gastropathies were the most common lesions. There were 109 positive patients and 28 negative patients with a frequency of 79.6%. All age groups were affected. The infection predominated in young patients and in women in 81% of cases. It was associated with type of sanitation, gastrointestinal bleeding and peptic ulcer disease.

“…1,2 There was no significant variation in the presence of H. pylori by age and socio-economic factors in our series, contrary to the results of Hunt et al 1 Sokpon et al 9 and Odigie et al 21 reported a significant association with female sex, whereas most African studies did not find a statistically significant relationship between sex and H. pylori. 4,5,7,9,22 H. pylori infection is frequently associated with certain socio-demographic factors such as living conditions (promiscuity, access to drinking water), level of education, lifestyle, and occupation. 1,4,7,12,21,23 None of these factors classically associated with H pylori infection were found in our series.…”

“…This finding corroborates most of the studies carried out in Africa on this subject. 9,20,22 Gastritis is thought to result from an inflammatory and immunological response induced by H. pylori. 1,25 In patients infected with H. pylori in our series, pre-neoplastic lesions were noted such as gastric atrophy in 7.1% of cases, intestinal metaplasia in 7.69% of cases and low grade dysplasia in 8.57% of cases.…”

Infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is common in developing countries such as Benin. This germ can cause several gastroduodenal diseases such as gastritis, ulcer, adenocarcinoma or gastric MALT lymphoma. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of H. pylori infection and gastric pre-neoplastic histological lesions in patients admitted for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGE) and to identify factors associated with this infection.Methods: This was a cross-sectional descriptive and analytical study, with prospective data collection, conducted from October 2014 to December 2015. We included all patients admitted to Menontin Hospital for UGE in whom a gastric biopsy has been done. H. pylori research was conducted in anatomy-pathology, either in a medical laboratory in Cotonou or at the CERBA laboratory in Paris, France, depending on the patient's choice. The microscopic study was carried out after staining with Haematoxyline-Eosine-Safran (HES) and the search for H. pylori using Giemsa staining.Results: H. pylori was investigated in 137 patients, 67 men (48.9%) and 70 women (51.1%). The mean age was 48.3±14.6years with extremes of 10 and 83years. Some patients had had at least one previous H. pylori eradication treatment (63 cases or 46%). For the general population, the test was positive in 98 cases, i.e. a prevalence of 71.5%. Depending on whether or not patients had been pre-treated for H. pylori, the test was positive in 40 out of 63 (63.5%) pre-treated patients, versus 58 out of 74 (78.4%) patients who were naïve to any eradication treatment (p=0.057). The pre-neoplastic lesions noted were gastric atrophy in 35 patients (including 25 H. pylori positive), intestinal metaplasia in 13 patients (including 10 H. pylori positive) and low grade dysplasia in 14 patients (including 12 H. pylori positive); high grade dysplasia was found in one patient who was H. pylori negative. Only the type of prior eradicant treatment appeared to be associated with H. pylori infection (p=0.182). Conclusion:H. pylori infection is common in our patients admitted for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Gastric atrophy was the most common pre-neoplastic lesion.

Introduction: Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is the most common bacterial infection in the world. World Health Organization has classified this bacterium as a Class I carcinogen. The objective of this work is to study the epidemiological, clinical and pathological aspects of Helicobacter pylori infection among adults in a digestive endoscopy unit and the pathological anatomy service of Parakou. Patients and Methods: This was a descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study conducted from January 2020 to September 2020 in the digestive endoscopy unit and pathological anatomy service at the Departmental University Hospital Center of Borgou. Patients aged 18 years and older, who had undergone a gastroscopy with biopsies and who gave their oral consent were included. Three antral biopsies and two fundic biopsies were performed. The search for Hp was done under an optical microscope after staining with hematoxylin eosin. Results: A total of 151 patients were included and 51.66% were infected with Hp. Their average age was 40.63 ± 15.32 years and the sex ratio was 0.9. Epigastric pain was the most reported symptom (71.01%). Endoscopically, the prevalence of erythematous gastropathy was 98.72%. The study of chronic Hp gastritis according to Sydney system had shown signs of activity in 100% of patients with Hp and glandular atrophy in 83.33% of them. Intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia accounted for 24.35% and 29.48% of cases, respectively. Factors associated with
