Endoscopic Characteristics of Gastric Polyps and Their Background Mucosa on the Gastric Body

Abstract: We investigated the endoscopic and histopathological characteristics of 112 gastric polyps on the gastric body. According to the histopathological findings of the glands in the biopsy specimens, we classified the polyps into 6 categories; dense fundic gland type (group A), sparse fundic gland type (B), mixed fundic and pyloric gland type (C), pyloric gland type (D), complete atrophic gland type (E) and others (F). The grade of atrophic gastritis was defined by the fundic‐pyloric border type of the stomach, an… Show more

“…The risk factors of gastric polyps are unclear at present, and the underlying pathologies for gastric polyps among Asian population are rather inconsistent [8, 9]. Given the relatively higher background prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection in Taiwan [10, 11] and because some individuals in Taiwan undertake health examinations, inclusive of upper GI endoscopy (and pay for it themselves), we performed this cross-sectional study to determine the risk factors and prevalence of gastric polyps in Taiwan.…”
