Abstract:
Endoscopic biopsies were taken from the gastric antral mucosa, in 150 cases of non-ulcerative dyspepsia at the Gastroscopic Clinic, Dist. Hospital, Belgaum. Spiral or curved bacilli, were demonstrated in specimens from 99 patients. The histologic demonstration of the organism by Warthin Starry stain (66%) was superior to Haematoxylin and Eosin (47.33%), Urease test (42%) and Gram's stain (35.33%). There was a strong association between C pyloridis in the gastric mucosa and histologically defined gastritis (95.55%).
