ABSTRACT

A descriptive and retrospective investigation of the patients older than 18 years to whom an endoscopy of the higher digestive duct was practiced in the Gastroenterology Service from "Simón Bolívar" People’s Clinic Hospital, in Carabobo State, Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela was carried out in the period of January, 2010 to December, 2012, aimed at checking if there was infection due to Helicobacter pylori in this zone of the digestive system, according to some clinical, epidemiological and endoscopic variables of interest. Among the excellent results of the case material there was the infection caused by this bacteria which was more frequent in the 31-60 years age group and in the female sex; also, the epigastralgia and the erosive erythematous pangastritis were mostly associated with the microorganism. It could be concluded that the endoscopy is the key stone for the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori.
