“…In countries in which Helicobacter pylori infections are commonly seen, hyperplastic and adenomatous polyps are found to be more frequent than fundic gland polyps (8,9). In western countries, where H. pylori infections are less common and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) drug use is more common, fundic gland polyps are seen more frequently (10,11). As modern examinations of the digestive system have increased in number, gastric polyps are now detected more frequently (6).…”

Background/Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the gastric polyps detected by endoscopy in our institution with respect to their frequency, size, anatomic location, presence of dysplasia, and histopathologic features. Materials and Methods: Records of a total of 14,240 patients who underwent endoscopy between January 2008 and January 2012 were reviewed retrospectively. Of the 14,240 patients, 174 determined to have at least 1 histopathologically proven polyp were included in the study. Results: Three hundred eleven gastric polyps were found in 174/14,240 (1.2%) patients (1.79 polyps per patient). Gastric polyps were found most commonly in the antrum (41.5%). Of all gastric polyps, 189 (60.8%) were less than 1 cm. Histopathologically, the most common polyp type was hyperplastic (n: 261, 83.9%), followed by adenomatous (n: 23, 7.4%). Eight (34.8%) of the adenomatous polyps showed dysplasia, and in 4 (17.4%) of these cases, the dysplasia was high-grade. Nineteen (6.1%) of all gastric polyps were identified to be fundic gland polyps. Conclusion: According to this study from Turkey, the majority of polyps detected by endoscopy was solitary, smaller than 1 cm, and found in the antrum; furthermore, the most common type was a hyperplastic polyp.

“…In a recent American study, based on 120,000 gastro-scopies carried out over one year period, the relative prevalence of gastric carcinoids was 0.58% (46 cases). Of these cases, half of the patients had chronic gastritis and/or intestinal metaplasia (47.8 and 52.2%, respectively), four were associated with hyperplastic polyps and another one with an inflammatory fibroid polyp (5).…”

Girifl ve Amaç: : Gastrik polipler baz›lar›nda malign potansiyel oldu¤u için önem arzederler. Baz› polipler ç›kar›lmaz ise mide kanseri geliflebilir. Mide polibi prevalans› ve histopatolojik durumlar› toplumlara göre de¤iflim gösterir. Bu çal›flma Orta Anadolu Bölgesi'nde mide polibi prevalans› ve histopatolojik durumlar› de¤erlendirilmek için planland›. Gereç ve Yöntem: Erciyes Üniversitesi T›p Fakültesi Gastroenteroloji klini¤inde A¤ustos 2007-2009 y›llar› aras›nda üst endoskopi yap›lan hastalar›n t›bbi kay›tlar› taranarak yap›ld›. Bulgular: Üst endoskopi yap›lan 5582 erkek, 6016 kad›n olmak üzere toplam 11598 hasta incelendi. 69 hastada (25 erkek, 44 kad›n) mide polibi görülerek biyopsi al›nd›¤› tespit edildi. Buna gore gastrik polip prevalans› yaklafl›k %0.59 olarak tespit edildi. ‹statistiksel analizler polip yerleflim yeri ile histopatolojik durum aras›nda korelasyon olmad›¤›n› gösterdi. Sonuç: Bölgemizde malign ve premalign polip oran› tüm mide poliplerinin içinde oldukça yüksektir. Bu tür poliplerin yüksek s›kl¤›n›n sebebini araflt›ran H. pylori ve daha fazla verinin de¤erlendirildi¤i genifl prospektif çal›flmalara ihtiyaç vard›r.

The Current Spectrum of Gastric Polyps: A 1-Year National Study of over 120,000 Patients

Abstract: The relative prevalence of fundic gland polyps in this population was much higher than that reported earlier, most likely because of the widespread use of proton pump inhibitors. H. pylori- and atrophy-associated polyps, including adenomas, were less common than in earlier series.
