ABSTRACT

The case of a 40 years old patient diagnosed with gastric Xanthelasma related to Helicobacter pylori is presented. This association is rare to find in medical literature. The following aspects are highlighted: entity rareness, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment and importance of the association with Helicobacter pylori. A literature review on the most important features of these processes has been carried out. It has been concluded that Helicobacter pylori should be seriously taken into consideration because of its aetiology in malignant diseases and that all kinds of investigations should be performed in order to diagnose it in due time.
