Overview

Helicobacter pylori (HP) is well known as the main cause of chronic gastritis, gastroduodenal ulcers and gastric cancer. It plays a role in the development of MALT lymphoma as well as other diseases. HP is also implicated in the pathogenesis of oropharyngeal . In children, the nasal lymphatic tissues and adenoids are possibly the source of this HP infection. It is believed that this infection follows a similar immune and inflammatory process to the one in the stomach or the lymphatic tissue associated to the mucosal MALT: this can lead to lymphatic hypertrophy and adenoid vegetation (AV). So far, a HP colonization has not been proved nor dismissed. Our aim is to confirm whether HP infection is linked to lymphatic hypertrophy in the nasal lymphatic tissues or it is just a concomitant occurrence.

Key words:
Helicobacter pylori (HP), adenoids, gastroesophageal reflex disease (GERD), PCR detection.
