    The epidemiology of HP and of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is worldwide. The prevalence of both carcinogenic agents, in the world human population is about 45%. A recent study suggests that EBV coinfection with HP cagA positive increases the oncogenic potential of this bacterium. The objective of this study was to identify the prevalence of the bacterium HP and of the virus EBV and the association of those pathogens and of the cagA gene in patients with gastritis in the population of Amapá. A descriptive study was accomplished, of the traversal type, where 292 samples of gastric mucous of the patients were analyzed with gastritis submitted to the endoscopy, age group between 14 and 83 years. For detection of HP, Urease test and Polymerase Chain reaction were used; this methodology was also useful to reveal the positive cagA of the bacterium. Additionally, the technique of in situ hybridization was used for detection of EBV and the microscopic analysis that determined the histopathological characteristics of the gastric mucous. Results: The study showed high prevalence of cases of HP in patients with gastritis with a relative frequency of 87,67% of the 292 analyzed cases, a higher incidence, of HP positive cases, in female, 88,27%. The incidence of the cagA gene in samples of positive patients for HP was 72,66%, higher prevalence in female, 75,32%. In the present study 8,59% of the patients were found with viral infection caused by EBV in positive samples for HP with bigger prevalence in male, 9,18%. According to the age group, the study showed higher prevalence of the gene cagA and of EBV in positive patient for HP in the age group between 44 and 54 years, with 23,12% and 36,37%, respectively. Conclusion: Most of the findings of this study are similar to the reports from the literature, however, it is necessary other studies in order to explain if there is or there is no correlation between the infection for HP and EBV in the north of Brazil.
