Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection is a very important pathogenic link in children with gastroduodenal pathologies. The bacterial implication, in the pathogeny of the digestive diseases and in the development of some extradigestive diseases, is very well known nowadays. The prevalence of the infection differs between geografic areas, it is declining in the developed countries and it is high in the population of the countries in development. It is a fact that there are bacteria which affect specifically an organ, but in the same time, can lead to systemic alterations throughout the entire body. The chronic infection with H. Pylori is associated with anaemia, weight and height loss. The increase of the quality and accuracy inidentifying the H. Pylori infection leads to a low rate of complications of the infection by applying the correct and early treatment.

Infecţia cu Helicobacter pylori (HP) este o verigă patogenică foarte importantă la copiii cu afecţiuni gastroduodenale. Implicarea bacteriei atât în patogeneza bolilor digestive, cât şi în producerea unor afecţiuni extradigestive este foarte bine stabilit şi cunoscut în prezent. Prevalenţa infecţiei diferă de la o zonă geografică la alta, fiind în declin în ţările dezvoltate şi menţinându-se încă ridicată la populaţia din ţările în curs de dezvoltare. Infecţia cronică cu H. pylori se asociază cu anemie, scădere ponderală şi staturală. Creşterea calităţii şi acurateţei depistării infecţiei cu H. pylori determină o rată scăzută a complicaţiilor acestor afecţiuni prin aplicarea unor strategii de tratament îmbunătăţit constant.
