This bacterial species colonizes the stomach of the greater part of the total populace; notwithstanding, only a very small proportion of infected subjects improve adenocarcinoma. helicobacter pylori causes a chronic gastritis that might last periods, and a multistep precancerous process is documented for the most common histologic type of gastric adenocarcinoma: the intestinal type.<br /> <strong>Objectives:</strong> Distinguishing of individuals at high risk for gastric cancer.<br /> <strong>Conclusion:</strong> This article briefly summarizes the main aspects concerning gastric adenocarcinomas and the carcinogenic effects of HELICOBACTER pylori infection.<br /> <strong> </strong>
