Abstract

Objective: Helicobacter pylori is implicated in gastric and duodenal car- cinoma, gastric and duodenal ulcers, atrophic gastritis, dyspepsia, gastric adenocarcinoma and gastric lymphoma. Eradication of Helicobacter pylo- ri has a major role in the treatment of the mentioned diseases. Methods: Two thousand and sixty nine gastro endoscopic examinations performed in the İstanbul Research and Education Hospital Endoscopy Unit during July-October 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. During each examination, specimens were obtained and sent to the Pathology depart- ment. Each specimen was dyed using the Modified Giemsa technique. The status of Helicobacter pylori was made as -(negative), +(positive first le- vel), ++ (positive second level), +++ (positive third level). Results: Out of 2069 gastroendoscopic examinations performed in the İstanbul Research and Education Hospital Endoscopy Unit during July- October 2010, 301 were reported by the performing endoscopist to be totally normal. In 175 of these, Helicobacter pylori was at least + (58%), whereas in 126 patients’ biopsy results Helicobacter pylori was - (42%). Conclusion: In this study, in patients with normal gastroendoscopic fin- dings, Helicobacter pylori is present in at least + in 58% of patients. Consi- dering the wide range of diseases caused by this bacteria, in every endos- copic examination at least one specimen should be obtained

Özet

Amaç: Helicobacter pylori günümüzde birçok ciddi ve yüksek maliyetli gastrointestinal hastalığın etyolojisinde yer almaktadır. Gastroskopik incelemede mukozal patoloji saptanmayan kişilerde de Helicobacter pylori pozitifliği görülebilmektedir. Çalışmamızda endoskopi sonuçları normal özofagogastroskopi olarak rapor edilen kişilerde Helicobacter pylori pozitifliği insidansı- nı ve biopsi alınması gerekliliğini araştırmayı planladık. Yöntemler: Temmuz-Ekim 2010 tarihlerinde Sağlık Bakanlığı İstanbul Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Endoskopi Ünitesi'nde yapılan 2069 gastroskopi olgusu geriye dönük olarak tarandı. Bu olguların hepsinden sitopatolojik inceleme için biyopsi alınmıştı. Alınan spesimenler Helicobacter pylori pozitifliği açısından Modifiye Giemsa boyama tekniği ile boyandı. Değerlendirme -(negatif), +(bir pozitif), ++ (iki pozitif), +++ (üç pozitif) olarak yapıldı. Bulgular: Gastroskopi yapılan 2069 olgunun 301'inde işlemi yapan endoskopist tarafından makroskopik gastroduodenal mukozal görüntü tamamen normal olarak yorumlandı. Bu 301 olgunun 175'inde Helicobacter pylori pozitifti (%58). Yüz yirmi altı olguda ise Helicobacter pylori negatif olarak bulundu (%42). Sonuç: Çalışmamızda normal özofagogastroduodenoskopi tanısı almış ki- şilerde Helicobacter pylori pozitifliğini %58 olarak bulduk. Neden olduğu hastalıklar (gastrik kanser, peptik ülser, MALT lenfoma vb.) göz önüne alındığında eradikasyon için her hastada endoskopik girişim sırasında biyopsi alınmasının doğru olduğunu düşünmekteyiz.
