Sumario:Russell body gastritis is a rare form of chronic gastritis. It is characterized by the invasion of lamina propria by plasma cells that included eosinophilic cytoplasmic inclusion. In the literature, most of the cases are associated with Helicobacter pylori. Russell body gastritis and Helicobacter pylori infection are generally seen together incidentally. We report here two cases of Russell body gastritis with Helicobacter pylori infection in a 51-yr-old woman and a 39-yr-old man from Eskisehir, Turkey.
