Abstract

The authors report the results of systematic research on Campylobacter pylori during high endoscopy. Of the 60 patients examined, 12 were found to have the germ in their antral, gastric mucosa. All these patients had a history of chronic gastritis. They recall the role of this germ in creating chronic gastritis, and evoke the hypothesis that the mucosa becomes fragile facilitating the appearance of an ulcer.
