The association between Helicobacter pylori and gastric cancer has been firmly established. Eradication of H. pylori seems to modestly reduce gastric cancer risk as well as to induce regression of preneoplastic lesions. However, gastric cancer can still occur despite eradication and endoscopic follow-up might still be needed.

Abstract
The association between Helicobacter pylori and gastric cancer has been firmly established. Eradication of H. pylori seems to modestly reduce gastric cancer risk as well as to induce regression of preneoplastic lesions. However, gastric cancer can still occur despite eradication and endoscopic follow-up might still be needed.File in questo prodotto:
