BACKGROUNDAccording to the study population, incidence of gastric polyps (GP) varies from 0.33% to 6.7% in various studies. Most GPs consist of proliferative polyps (HP), gastric fundus polyps (FGP) and adenomatous polyps (APs). Despite the high malignant AP potential, sporadic FGP has no malignant potential. On the contrary, HP has a lower risk of potential harm. It is not sufficient to perform biopsies to determine the presence of polyp types and displacements, therefore, some polyps may require extensive biopsy or complete resection. METHODS This retrospective study included GP patients or polyphenic lesions with polyps or malignant histologyfound in polyps or gastroscopy at the Department of Gastroenterology, Shaanxi Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from 2017 to 2019. RESULTSIn a series of 10.000 upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, 384 patients (0.38%) were found to have GPs.Of these patients, 98 (25.5) were male and 286(74.5) were female. The average age of the patients
