We present a trial on 21 patients with gastric surgery, by different pathologies, benign and malignant, with the aim of detecting presence or absence of Pyloric Campylobacter. The clinical, endoscopic findings and presence-absence of Pyloric Campylobacter were correlated. Regarding the clinical symptomatology, it was not possible to obtain a favourable conclusion to the presence of Pyloric Campylobacter in both groups. The endoscopic findings showed changes more evident in those cases of positive Pyloric Campylobacter. The therapeutical response of positive Pyloric Campylobacter to TDB during 30 days was beneficial regarding the disappearance of the symptoms.
