A Case of Atypical Fundic Gland Hyperplasia Confirmed by Endoscopic Mucosal Resection
Abstract
-
Fundic gland hyperplasia is a hyperplasia of glandular portion on epithelium of gastric fundus or body. The incidence of fundic gland hyperplasia is 1.4% in the general population. Fundic gland hyperplasia is the most common cause of multiple polyposis. Probably the most cause of fundic gland hyperplasia is a hamartomatous origin but some hyperplastic origin because of spontaneous remission. We have experienced and reported a case of atypical fundic gland hyperplasia confirmed by endoscopic mucosal resection.
