Objectives: This study aims to investigate the presence of Helicobacter pylori H. pylori using the real-time polymerase chain reaction PCR method in the adenoid tissues in children undergoing surgical operation due to adenoid hypertrophy. Patients and Methods: Adenoid tissues of 23 children 8 girls, 15 boys; mean age 6.2 years; range 3 to 9 years who were operated with the diagnosis of adenoid hypertrophy, tonsil + adenoid hypertrophy or tonsil + adenoid hypertrophy + serous otitis media in our clinic between January 2012 and April 2012 were examined. Results: Of 23 patients, H. pylori was detected in the adenoid tissues of two 8.7% . Regurgitation was present in seven patients. However, no regurgitation was found in H. pylori-positive patients. Conclusion: In this study the presence of H. pylori in patients with adenoid hypertrophy has been demonstrated using PCR method. To be able to support the hypothesis that H. pylori has a place in etiology of adenoid hypertrophy, multicenter studies are warranted.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada adenoid hipertrofi nedeniyle cerrahi yapılan çocukların adenoid dokularında gerçek zamanlı polimeraz zincir reaksiyonu PZR yöntemi ile Helicobacter pylori H. pylori varlığı araştırıldı.Hastalar ve Yöntemler: 2012 Ocak - 2012 Nisan tarihleri arasında kliniğimizde adenoid hipertrofisi, tonsil + adeoid hipertrofisi veya tonsil + adenoid hipertrofisi + seröz otitis media tanısı ile ameliyat edilen 23 çocuğun 8 kız, 15 erkek; ort. yaş 6.2 yıl; dağılım 3-9 yıl adenoid dokuları incelendi.Bulgular: Yirmi-üç hastanın ikisinin %8.7 adenoid dokularında H. pylori saptandı. Yedi hastada regürjitasyon vardı. Ancak, H. pylori pozitif hastalarda regürjitasyona rastlanmadı.Sonuç: Bu çalışmada, adenoid hipertirofisi olan hastalarda H. pylori varlığı PCR yöntemi ile gösterilmiştir. H.pylori’nin adenoid hipertrofisinin etiolojisinde yerini alması için çok merkezli çalışmalar ile bu hipotezin desteklenmesi gerekmektedir
