- Title
Should We Test for and Eradicate Helicobacter pylori Before Bariatric Surgery?
- Authors
Emile, Sameh Hany
- Abstract
We agree with the authors on their conclusion that further large-scale prospective studies are needed to elucidate the link between HP, metabolic syndrome, and the sequence of GERD-Barrett's esophagus-adenocarcinoma. Finally, apart from the relation between HP and GERD, as the authors implied in their letter HP can play a role in the development of the metabolic syndrome and fatty liver disease. Dear Editor We thank the authors for their letter commenting on the findings of our study on the relation between I Helicobacter pylori i (HP) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) [[1]].
