Abstract
|
|
|
Helicobacter pylori infection is the main cause of chronic atrophic gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, gastric carcinoma, and mucosal associated lymphoid tumor. Recently, Helicobacter pylori infection has been reported in the association with
several extragastric diseases such as idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), iron deficiency anemia (IDA), cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, autoimmune disease, chronic urticaria and growth retardation, but the evidence of data has not been complete and is not widely known. According to up-to-date ideas, H. pylori eradication
should be treated in the case of ITP and IDA. Here, we reviewed the extragastric diseases presumpted with the association of Helicobacter pylori infection, but the evidences need further investigation.
