YARYURA MONTERO, José G. et al. Endoscopic treatment of intramucosal adenocarcinoma in hyperplastic gastric polyp. Rev. argent. cir. [online]. 2021, vol.113, n.2, pp.253-257. ISSN 2250-639X. http://dx.doi.org/10.25132/raac.v113.n2.1496.ei.
The prevalence of gastric polyps during upper gastrointestinal endoscopies is 6%, and 17% correspond to gastric hyperplastic polyps. They are usually incidentally found during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy; yet, large polyps may become symptomatic. The prevalence of gastric cancer in gastric hyperplastic polyps is 2.1%. The aim of this paper is to describe an atypical presentation of this disease with review of the literature. A 73-year-old male patient with anemia and subsequent diagnosis of early gastric cancer in a gastric hyperplastic polyp was treated with endoscopic polypectomy with endoloop.Minimally invasive treatment by endoscopic resection is sufficient in this type of patients.
