Abstract
Helicobacter pylori infection is one of the most common problems in the world. It is proven that the infection produced by this gram-negative microaerobic bacteria is one of the causal factors in the development of peptic ulcer disease, gastric adenocarcinoma and primary B-cell lymphoma. The transmission of the bacteria occurs mainly from person to person through the fecal route. -oral and oral-oral, as well as by ingesting contaminated water.
