What Types of Cancer are Associated with H. pylori?
The most significant association is with gastric adenocarcinoma, which accounts for a substantial proportion of stomach cancers worldwide. Additionally, H. pylori infection has been implicated in the development of MALT lymphoma, a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that affects the stomach lining. Other potential, although less established, associations include pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer.
