    Abstract:
    As a result of selective biopsy of gastric polyps 77 hyperplastic, 36 hyperplasiogenous and 11 adenomas were found. By the introduction of endoscopic polypectomy 42 polyps were resected in toto and 39 could be removed. The histological result of the whole polyp showed that the most frequent form is the hyperplastiougenous type with 42.5%. Comparisons of the histological results of the whole polyp with the particles of the biopsy (selective biopsy) differ in 40%. The combination of the results of antral polyposis (type II) with those of an adenocarcinoma in the material affirmed our thesis that the hyperplasiogenous polyp is an indicator for a higher tendency of the gastric mucosa for developing a carcinoma. Follow-up observations of pseudopolypoid folts showed a spontaneous regression of about 50% after one year and of about 75% after four years. In this article tendencies regarding the relation between the patients age, the growth speed and the histological structure of the gastric polyps are discussed.
