Background: Infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has been linked with chronic atrophic gastritis, an inflammatory precursor of gastric adenocarcinoma. There are data on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and histology of this disease that show that Helicobacter pylori gastritis has an important role in gastric carcinogenesis. However, it has to be considered that only very few of those infected with Helicobacter pylori will develop gastric cancer. Hence, it will be a major target of future research to identify individuals who carry a greater risk for developing gastric cancer, and therefore may benefit from eradication of Helicobacter pylori in terms of gastric cancer prevention. Various studies revealed that approximately more than 50% of the world’s human population is infected by Helicobacter pylori. In underdeveloped countries, this association is shown to be much higher according to different studies.Methods: This study was conducted over a period of 36 months from 1st January 2014 till December 31st, 2016. All patients who underwent Gastrectomy during this period were taken. All specimens were investigated to see presence of helicobacter pylori by histological examination. A total of 50 Gastrectomy was performed by one surgical team over 36-month period.Results: Out of 50 patients, Helicobacter pylori positivity was seen in 33 (66%) cases by histopathological examination (HPE). Gastric cancer is more prevalent among males 31 (62%) as compared to 19 (38%) in females. It is more common among the older age group.Conclusions: Helicobacter pylori infection is higher in prevalence in cases of stomach cancer. Present study also showed that there is significant association of Helicobacter pylori infection with gastric carcinoma. Helicobacter pylori infection could be one of the etiological factors for gastric carcinoma.
