  • Title: [Fibro-inflammatory polyp with eosinophilic infiltration. Apropos of 3 cases of gastric polyps].
    Author: Battin-Bertho R, Dauge MC, Toublanc M, Grossin M, Marche C, Bocquet L.
    Journal: Ann Pathol; 1987; 7(3):176-83. PubMed ID: 3325068.
    Abstract:
    We report three cases of inflammatory fibroid polyp of the stomach (Helwig's pseudo-tumour) and record 127 patients in the literature. The anatomo-clinical features of such a disease are analysed and the larger outline of eosinophilic infiltrations of the gastro intestinal tract are described. Most of the authors class the gastric nodular eosinophilic granuloma as the Helwig's pseudo-tumour, but they are not so unanimous for the exact relationship between inflammatory fibroid polyp and the eosinophilic gastroenteritis. For Helwig, they are two distinct conditions, but for others, they belong to the same anatomo-clinical entity, with a broad diversity of morphological features.
