Increasing evidences indicate that H. pylori is an important reason for causing gastric carcinoma and lymphoma (Andreoli, 2001; Baron, 2000). Gastric cancer is the world’s second leading cause of cancer-related mortality. H. pylori was classified as a type I (definitive) carcinogen, while prolonged residual MALT lymphoma could constitute an additional risk of gastric carcinoma (Farinha & Gascoyne 2005; Copie-Bergman et al., 2005).
It has been estimated that 1:30-1:60 of the UK population die from an H. Pylori related disease (Moayyedi & Axon 1998). All these reasons make H. Pylori eradication a necessary attempt (Nasrat et al., 2015).
