Several lines of evidence suggest a link between chronic gastritis due to Helicobacter pylori
and mucosa-associated lymphoid-tissue (MALT) lymphoma of the stomach. 1, 2 A close
epidemiologic association has been reported. 3–5 The microorganism can be found in the
gastric mucosa in nearly all cases, and regression of low-grade gastric MALT lymphoma has
been demonstrated after the eradication of H. pylori. 6, 7 The suggested progression from H.
pylori–associated chronic gastritis to overt MALT lymphoma8 has not been formally …

The suggested progression from H. pylori–associated chronic gastritis to overt MALT lymphoma8 has not been formally demonstrated, although if it exists, such a mechanism may have important implications for the treatment of H. pylori–associated gastritis. Each B . . .
