Abstract:
Study on 100 gastroduodenal ulcer patients treated at Can Tho General Hospital between March and December 2001. Results: the prevalence of gastric ulcer was high (58%), followed by duodenal ulcer (39%) and the prevalence of gastroduodenal ulcer was low (3%). The rate of H.pylori positive was 66.66% in duodenal ulcer patients, 55.17% in gastric ulcer patients. The rate of H.pylori infection was 33.33% in gastroduodenal ulcer patients. H.pylori was still sensitive with amoxicillin (97.29%), tetracycline (94.6%), clarythromycine and erythromycin (72.97%), but was highly resistant with metronidazole (91%).
