Core Tip	For patients undergoing gastric surgery due to acute complications of peptic ulcer diseases or gastric cancer, this surgical procedure may increase the occurrence of biliary enterogastric reflux and potentially inhibit the growth of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in the stomach. Bile reflux and H. pylori infection appear to have a synergistic effect on cell proliferation in the gastric remnant and may explain the increased risk of cancer after gastrectomy. First-line triple therapy is effective for the eradication of H. pylori in gastrectomized patients. Serology is the only test that is not affected by local changes in the stomach, and could be used to avoid the false-negative results obtained with other tests.
