  • Title: [Gastric polyps: histogenetic considerations and therapeutic trends].
    Author: Bacaro D, Gentileschi G, Spina C, Stolfi VM, Quintigliano D, Gentileschi E.
    Journal: G Chir; 1990; 11(11-12):652-6. PubMed ID: 2091729.
    Abstract:
    The Authors report their series of 86 patients with gastric polyps, observed from 1986 to 1989. Basing on the literature data the lesions were divided in A) inflammatory polyps, B) hyperplastic polyps, C) adenomatous polyps and 27, 49 and 10 lesions, were respectively found for each type. Particular attention was given to the association between intestinal metaplasia and gastric dysplasia for each type of polyp. A significant prognostic value as a precancerous lesion was recognized only to dysplasia. Therapeutic trend for each single polyp, based on the histologic type, is suggested.
