Seroprevalence of helicobacter pylori in patients with colorectal polyps and colorectal carcinoma

Abstract

This study shows that there is no increase in the seroprevalence of H. pylori in patients with colorectal polyps or colorectal carcinoma compared with controls. These results do not support the hypothesis that there is a relationship between H. pylori infection and the development of colorectal neoplasia.
