Introduction
To prove the influence of the Helicobacter pylori for the developement of the central serous chorioretinopathy. Material and methods We examined 55 patients with central serous chorioretinopathy confirmed by fluorescein angiogram and 55 controls.Each patient provided venous blood sample for IgG anti – bodies to Helicobacter pylori by enzyme – linked immunosorbent assay technique (ELISA) and a stool specimen for Helicobacter pylori antigens. Results 44% in CSC patients were positive results of stool examine and only 29% in group comtrol. In 67% of the patients we proved the presence of the antibodies IgG – anty Helicobacter pylori and in 47% controls.The difference was statistically significant. Conclusions Helicobacter pylori infection is statistically more frequently among the patients with CSC diagnosis than in healthy population. keywords:
