Core Tip Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) antimicrobial susceptibility testing is critical to accurately detect antimicrobial resistance, thereby influencing appropriate treatment choices, promoting antimicrobial stewardship and increasing H. pylori eradication rates. However, H. pylori culture represents a challenge and is limited to a small number of specialized centres and reference laboratories. Increasing biopsy sample number has been suggested to improve culture success, but data directly comparing dual biopsy vs single biopsy sample collection for H. pylori culture are lacking. Here we show that combined corpus and antrum biopsy sampling improves H. pylori culture success compared to single antrum biopsy sampling.
