| | Helicobacter pylori is a micro-aerophilic, Gram-negative, slow-growing, spiral-shaped and flagellated organism. | | | The presence of the bacterium in the gastric mucosa is associated with chronic active gastritis and is implicated in more severe gastric diseases, including chronic atrophic gastritis (a precursor of gastric carcinomas), peptic ulceration and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas. | | | pylori is probably the most common chronic bacterial infection of humans, present in almost half of the world population. |
