Diseases of the stomach and duodenum.

چکیده
The topics of stomach and duodenum have been described in this report. The discovery of Helicobacter pylori was the revolutionary event in the pathogenesis, diagnosis as well as treatment of gastrointestinal diseases. The eradication of the bacteria prevented the recurrence of peptic ulcer, namely gastric and duodenal ulcer. It is reported that this bacteria may be the main cause of gastric cancer as well as malignant lymphoma. However, direct evidence of this relevance is still lacking and further genetic studies need to be conducted.
