Abstract

A 3-year-old intact female korean pungsan dog showing chronic intermittent vomiting and anorexia was admitted to The Veterinary Medical leaching Hospital of Seoul National University. The patient had been received antiemetics, antacids or proton pump inhibitor for these symptoms but had not been recovered yet. All results of physical examination, complete blood count, serum chemical analysis, fecal test and radiography were normal. Gastric endoscopic examination was also performed and gastritis with hemorrhage on near antrum region was detected. In PCR assay of bioptic gastric tissues for detecting Helicobacter species infection, Helicobacter heilmannii infection was confirmed. After receiving triple therapy with amoxicillin, metronidazole and omeprazole for 21 days, all symptoms were recovered and had not been occurred again. Helicobacter heilmannii also were not detected.
