ABSTRACT
Helicobacter pylori is the most common causative agent of human infection, with a marked
disadvantage between developed and developing countries. Although Helicobacter pylori infection is
asymptomatic in majority of individuals infected, it is also clear their close relation with malignant
diseases of the stomach as gastric cancer and gastric MALT lymphoma and benign diseases such as
chronic gastritis and duodenal and gastric peptic ulcer. Since the moment it became know that bacteria
could colonize the gastric mucosa, hundred extragastric events have been reported in the indexed world
medical literature (PubMed), that involves medical specialties as diverse as cardiology, dermatology,
endocrinology, obstetrics and gynecology, hematology, pulmonology, neurology, dentistry, ophthal-
mology, otolaryngology, pediatrics, psychiatry and peripheral vascular. Some of these with varying
proofs of relation between Helicobacter pylori infection and disease development. This review focuses
in the analysis of the relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and immune thrombocytopenia
(ITP), known as idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. The information for ITP includes the problem
overview, evidence of the association with Helicobacter pylori infection, the pathophysiology and management
in poshelicobacter era.
