RESUMEN
The purpose of our research was to prove the occurrence of Helicobacter pylori infection in diabetic patients. Out of the 100 patients who were treated at the diabetological clinic, the antibody of Helicobacter pylori could be shown in 57 patients. Through histological tests carried out in the course of upper panendoscopia of the patients having positive results of serological test, Helicobacter pylori infection could be actually proved in 39 cases. On the basis of the evaluated material of diabetic patients, the occurrence of Helicobacter pylori infection was not higher than that in of the average population. No connection has been found between the frequency of the infection, and type of diabetes or its duration. The eradicational treatment was successful with 85% of the patients.
