Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is highly associated with gastrointestinal disorders, including peptic ulcer disease, gastric cancer, and gastric mucosa associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma.1 In 1994, H. pylori was classified as a group carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Since then, many consensus conferences and clinical guidelines worldwide have been established for the treatment of H. pylori infection.
