Abstract

Atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, and pyloric metaplasia are frequent precursors of noncardial intestinal-type gastric adenocarcinoma in populations in which both gastric cancer and Helicobacter pylori infection are common. We hypothesized that such lesions would be less prevalent in European gastric cancer patients.
