Gastric polyposis due to multiple hyperplastic adenomatous polyps

G A Weaver et al. Am J Dig Dis. 1978 Apr.

Abstract

Four cases of gastric polyposis in which the multiple polyps were hyperplastic adenomatous polyps are presented with endoscopic and histologic description. The multiple hyperplastic adenomatous polyps in our cases showed more diffuse involvement of specific regions of the stomach than is usual with papillary adenomatous polyps. Hyperplastic adenomatous polyps have a low potential for malignancy, and it is suggested that they may be followed by periodic observation rather than fulguration or removal.
