Proton pump inhibitor-induced fundic gland polyposis
A 42-year-old woman presented with recurrent acid regurgitation and heartburn. On initial upper endoscopy, multiple mucosal breaks were seen in the lower esophagus, but no abnormalities were observed in the stomach (Fig. 1). The patient took proton pump inhibitors for consistent reflux symptoms and reflux esophagitis. On follow-up endoscopy 4 years later, confluence of mucosal breaks and stenos...
متن کاملMorules in fundic gland polyposis: a case report.
Morular metaplasia has been exceptionally described in the stomach. We report the formation of morules in a case of sporadic fundic gland polyposis with low grade dysplasia in a 47 year old woman that underwent total gastrectomy. The immunophenotype of the morules was CD10, CDX2, Beta-catenin nuclear positive; p63, Ki67, chromogranin, synaptophysin, Ck20 negative. The presence of morules in a n...
متن کاملPremalignant Potential of Fundic Gland Polyps-associated Familial Polyposis Syndromes
Fundic gland polyps (FGPs) are the most common type of gastric polyps (up to 50%). They are found in up to 0.8-1.9 % of the general population, and in 40-84 % of the patients suffering from familial polyposis syndromes. They might be sporadic or associated to polyposis syndromes. When the former, they should be considered exclusively benign lesions, and possibly related to the chronic use of pr...
متن کاملMassive fundic gland polyposis in a patient receiving protracted proton-pump inhibitor medication.
A case of massive fundic gland polyposis (MFGPsis) in a female patient receiving protracted proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) medication is described. At gross examination the majority of the polyps were overlapping, confluent, some of them having a "cauliflower-like" configuration. The fundic gland polyps (FGP) arose in the gastric acid secretory mucosa. The confluence of these polyps impeded their ...
متن کاملFundic gland cysts in Atp4a-/- mice mimic fundic gland polyps in humans.
BACKGROUND Innumerable fundic gland polyps (FGPs) (that is massive FGP polyposis) may be found in the human stomach. Innumerable fundic gland cysts (FGCs) develop in mice lacking the gene Atp4a (Atp4a((-/-))), that encodes the enzyme ATPase. The aim was to monitor the evolution of FGCs in Atp4a((-/-)) mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six pairs (male-female) of Atp4a((-/-)) mice, 8, 12 and 20 month...
