<br/><br/> Chronic hepatitis-C-virus (HCV) infection is a leading cause of  end-stage liver disease worldwide. It has been shown that Helicobacter  pylori (H.pylori) plays an important role in chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer  disease and gastric malignancies and its eradication has been advocated.  Many international studies have shown that there is an association  between H.pylori infection and hepatitis B and C infections.  They suggested that gastric Helicobacter colonization may play a  role in the induction of Hepatocellular carcinoma, either directly via  colonization of the liver or indirectly, e.g: via secretion of specific toxins  by helicobacter residing in the stomach. Further studies answered the  question wether there is a true localization of the liver or only detectable  bacterial D.N.A by concluding that culture is the ultimate test, as it  provides the viability of Helicobacter species in the liver samples
