Patients who are Helicobacter pylori antibody negative and have normal pepsinogen (PG) levels (group A of ABC (D) stratification) are considered unlikely to develop gastric cancer. This study aimed to clarify the involvement (uninfection, present infection or previous infection) of H. pylori in group A patients with early gastric cancer who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) by examining their background gastric mucosa endoscopically and histologically.
