Abstract:
33 patients with H. pylori-induced chronic gastritis were treated by combination therapy with sucrategel and amoxicilline. Before and after treatment, the patients were given tests, included endoscopy and biopsy, histopathological test, urease test and culture for H. pylori. Histopathological findings before and after treatment were compared. The results showed that sucrategel plus amoxicilline combination was effective in H. pylori eradication in 51.51% of the patients. 42.42% of patients had remission in inflammatory or had normalization of gastric mucous membrane. For intestinal dysplasia, there was some improvement, but it was not concluded because of limitation in number of patients.
