Adenocarcinoma derived from gastric hamartomatous polyps

چکیده
Most hamartomatous polyps in the stomach occur in patients with adenomatous polyposis coli and dysplasia. The authors report a case of a 57-year-old man without prior history of polyposis coli who presented with adenocarcinomas derived from hamartomatous polyps in the stomach. The patient underwent a radical subtotal gastrectomy with Billroth I anastomosis. Pathology revealed adenocarcinomas with moderate differentiation without evidence of lymph node metastasis in 60 nodes. We report a case of gastric cancers arising from de novo gastric hamartomatous polyps.
