Key Words	Autoimmune; Skin; Helicobacter pylori; Infection
Core Tip	Epidemiological and experimental data now point to a strong relation of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection on the development of many autoimmune diseases. Eradication of H. pylori infection was shown to be effective in some patients with chronic autoimmune urticaria, psoriasis, alopecia areata and Schoenlein-Henoch purpura. There is conflicting and controversial data regarding the association of H. pylori infection with Beh?et’s disease, scleroderma and autoimmune bullous diseases. No data are available evaluating the association of H. pylori infection with vitiligo, cutaneous lupus erythematosus and dermatomyositis. A possible role of H. pylori infection in skin autoimmune diseases is the subject of this review.
