lüll Extradigestive manifestation of Helicobacter pylori infection in children and adolescents Sherman PM; Lin FYCan J Gastroenterol 2005[Jul]; 19 (7): 421-4Helicobacter pylori infection fulfills each of Koch's postulates as a human pathogen causing chronic active gastritis. Disease consequences that develop in a subset of infected subjects include peptic ulcerations, gastric adenocarcinoma and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. More recently, multiple publications have advocated a role for H. pylori infection in causing a variety of extraintestinal manifestations. Many of these reports suffer from being case reports or case series without adequate controls. As a result, purported manifestations may simply be coincidental in nature. On the other hand, increasing evidence supports H. pylori infection as a cause of sideropenic (refractory iron deficiency) anemia. Moderate evidence supports H. pylori gastric infection as a cause of some cases of immune thrombocytopenic purpura due to molecular mimicry. Guidelines should be adjusted in accordance with advancing knowledge in the field.|Adolescent[MESH]|Anemia, Iron-Deficiency/microbiology[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Growth Disorders/microbiology[MESH]|Helicobacter Infections/*complications[MESH]|Helicobacter pylori/physiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Stomach Diseases/microbiology[MESH] |
