Abstract: Objective To investigate the relationship between glue extrusion bleeding and helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection.Methods The a retrospective study enrolled 524 patients with endoscopic tissue adhesive injection in our hospital from October 2008 to June 2017.including 64 cases of glue extrusion bleeding group and 460 cases of non-bleeding group. Hp infection rate was compared between the two groups. Results There were 430 Hp positive patients with infection rate of 82.06%, 64 patients suffering glue extrusion bleeding with an incidence rate was of 12.21%. The Hp infection rate in non-bleeding group was significantly higher than that in bleeding group (P=0.00). Hp infection was not a risk factor for glue extrusion bleeding (P=0.130).Bleeding rate was higher in patients with poor liver reserve function.Conclusion Hp infection might be a protective factor for patients with gastric variceal who underwent endoscopic tissue adhesive injection. Additionally,the glue extrusion bleeding incidence has a positive correlation with Child-Pugh score.
