Core Tip

Core Tip:Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is reportedly a risk factor for the development of colonic adenomas, especially progressive or multiple adenomas. However, few studies have examined the risk factors for H. pylori infection after therapeutic colon polypectomy and the type of polyp pathology associated with its occurrence. This randomized study evaluated the risk factors for the development of H. pylori infections in patients with colon polyps and the relationship between their pathology and the development of H. pylori infections.
