There are ambiguous results about the involvement of Helicobacter species in production of hepatobiliary diseases. This study was aimed to investigate any possible association between the presences of Helicobacter spp., their genotypes and occurrence of different biliary diseases. Cultures of 102 bile samples for Helicobacter spp. did not show any growth, but the presence of Helicobacter genus specific DNA (16s rRNA gene) was detected in 3.92% of them. No significant association was found between development of the diseases and presence of the bacteria. All the Helicobacter genus positive samples belonged to H. pylori species and showed vacA+ (s1/m2), cagA- genotypes.

Patients with diseases of the biliary tract (which includes the hepatic bili canaliculi, hepatic bile ducts, common bile duct, and gallbladder) typically present with symptoms that include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and jaundice. This review covers the pathophysiology, assessment and stabilization, diagnosis and treatment, and disposition and outcomes for common biliary tract emergencies (cholelithiasis, acute cholecystitis, choledocholithiasis, and ascending cholangitis).  This review contains 5 figures, 11 tables, and 34 references. Keywords: Cholelithiasis, gallbladder disease, acute cholecystitis, gallstones, choledocholithiasis, ascending cholangitis
