Abstract:
In the past year the main interest was focused on the role of family for transmission of Helicobacter pylori to children; the evaluation of noninvasive diagnostic tests, especially in young children; extra-intestinal clinical manifestations; the lack of consensus on treatment; and the problem of high resistance of the microorganism to antibiotics.
