H.pylori resistance is a primary burden in obtaining eradication. The acquired resistance can either be due to antibiotic consumption in individual lifetime or to repeated therapeutic attempts in order to cure the infection. Susceptibility testing is the method of choice in indicating the most appropriate therapeutic option. In patients(pts) affected with pangastritis, biopsies for H.pylori culture should be obtained from all three gastric regions along with histo-pathological examination, in order to obtain full view of inflammation status and to verify the presence of hetero-resistance to antibiotics which may influence eradication outcome

Abstract
H.pylori resistance is a primary burden in obtaining eradication. The acquired resistance can either be due to antibiotic consumption in individual lifetime or to repeated therapeutic attempts in order to cure the infection. Susceptibility testing is the method of choice in indicating the most appropriate therapeutic option. In patients(pts) affected with pangastritis, biopsies for H.pylori culture should be obtained from all three gastric regions along with histo-pathological examination, in order to obtain full view of inflammation status and to verify the presence of hetero-resistance to antibiotics which may influence eradication outcomeI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
