Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Medicine - Department of Parasitology Summary: Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common complaints among children. Several etiological studies have recognized intestinal parasitic infections (including giadiasis) and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection as possible etiological factors. Due to poor hygiene and lack of appropriate water treatment facilities, polymicrobial infections are more frequently observed in developing countries but can also occur within developed countries. The association of H. pylori infection with parasites, especially giardia lamblia, is widely known to be high in developing countries. 150 patients (1 to15 years of age) of both sexes were classified into four groups; group A included 49 cases with parasitic infection only, group B included 24 cases with Helicobacter pylori only, group C included 39 cases with co-infection with both Helicobacter pylori and intestinal parasites, and group D included 38 cases not infected with either intestinal parasites or Helicobacter pylori. All patients were subjected to history taking, clinical examination, stool analysis, and detection of stool coproantigen test for H.pylori. Intestinal parasites were recorded in 88 cases (58.6%) with intestinal protozoa (92%) more frequent than intestinal helminthes (8%).Cases infected with H.pylori were 63 (42%) cases. Of these cases, co-infection with intestinal parasites and H.pylori was detected in 39 cases which represent 44% of cases with intestinal parasites and 62% of cases with H.pylori infection. Abdominal pain was the most recorded complaint in all groups. Diarrhea was most recorded in group A (63%), while it was recorded in less frequency in co-infected group C (36%). Diarrhea was recorded also in cases with H.pylori infection only in 29%
