Focal Intramucosal Adenocarcinoma Occurring in Gastric Hyperplastic Polyps: Two Case Reports
نویسندگان
چکیده
Gastric hyperplastic polyps are generally considered benign lesions, although rare cases of adenocarcinoma have been reported. Two cases of intramucosal adenocarcinoma originating from gastric hyperplastic polyps that were successfully removed by endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection are reported. On pathological examination, adenocarcinoma limited to the hyperplastic foveolar epithelial mucosa of the gastric hyperplastic polyps was observed.

An Intramucosal Mucinous Adenocarcinoma Arising From A Gastric Hyperplastic Polyp
Hyperplastic polyps are lesions that are mostly smaller than 1 cm; they are sessile and innocuous. They develop as a result of tissue damage and an exaggerated mucosal regeneration. Intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia at a rate of 1–20% may be seen in hyperplastic polyps. However, the risk of carcinoma development is less than 2%. The risk increases in multiple polyps (1). Here we present a cas...
متن کاملAdenocarcinoma Occurring in a Gastric Hyperplastic Polyp Treated with Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection
Gastric hyperplastic polyps are generally considered benign lesions, although rare cases of adenocarcinoma have been reported. Although, the underlying mechanism of carcinogenesis in gastric hyperplastic polyps is still uncertain, most malignant polyps are seen to originate from dysplastic epithelium rather than from hyperplastic epithelium. Herein, we report the case of a woman diagnosed with ...
متن کاملMetastatic Carcinoma Occurring in a Gastric Hyperplastic Polyp Mimicking Primary Gastric Cancer: The First Reported Case
Hyperplastic polyps of the stomach are regarded as benign. However, in rare cases they may contain incipient primary carcinomas. To our knowledge, breast carcinoma metastatic to a gastric hyperplastic polyp has not yet been reported. We describe the case of a 69-year-old woman to whom a gastric polyp was endoscopically excised. The patient had previously undergone a right mastectomy for mixed, ...
متن کاملEndoscopically treated Cronkhite-Canada syndrome associated with minute intramucosal gastric cancer: an analysis of molecular pathology.
There have been no reports of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome (CCS) associated gastric cancer resected with endoscopy because it is very difficult to identify small cancers that are candidates for endoscopic resection. We report a case of CCS with gastric cancer treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection, and we evaluate the molecular pathological analysis of malignant transformation in patients w...
