OBJECTIVES: The clinical significance of Helicobacter pylori-negative chronic gastritis (HPNCG) in children is unclear. We examined this issue in patients who had undergone esophagogastroduodenoscopy with systematic gastric sampling. METHODS: Data of 1178 consecutive children who underwent diagnostic esophagogastroduodenoscopy were collected.
