Abstract
Helicobacter pylori is recognized as one of the most common chronic bacterial infections worldwide. It’s proved to be the main pathogenic agent in chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric cancer, as well as the proposed etiology in diseases of the organs other than the stomach and duodenum like liver, biliary system, heart and vascular system, and skin. In this mini-review, we aimed to discuss shortly about the association of H. pylori infection in gallbladder diseases, such as chronic cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, and gall bladder cancer. Our study shows that H. pylori infection in the gallbladder may be one of the etiological factors leading to the gallbladder diseases. The precise mechanism requires further verifications.
