Homan M & Vangelis G.:  three tricky cases along the new HP guideline

Young ESPGHAN is on a roll! Today one of that group, a representative on the Education Committee, tries his hand at podcast interviewing: Dr Vangelis Giamouris was granted his medical degree at the University of Thessaly, trained in paediatrics in Athens at the Agia Sofia Children’s Hospital, and at present works at King’s College Hospital (London). He offers three clinical scenarios that involve Helicobacter pylori disease to Prof Dr Matjaž Homan for his perspective on diagnosis and treatment, in particular deployment of antibiotics. Prof Homan trained in Slovenia, taking his medical degree in Ljubljana, and has conducted academic work on H. pylori both there and in Zagreb (Croatia). He now in Ljubljana is the deputy director of the University Children’s Hospital. In his comments on Dr Giamouris’ clinical vignettes he illustrates the principles set out in the recently updated ESPGHAN / NASPGHAN guidelines for physicians addressing H. pylori disease – guidelines for which he was the foremost reviser, and which are cited below.
