Gastritis Cystica Polyposa: Case Report
author
Abstract:
Endoscopic evaluation of a 51 year old woman, who had referred with a 6-months complaint of epigastric pain and fullness in the upper abdomen, demonstrated a large polyp in the greater curvature of the middle third of the stomach. The size of the pedunculated polyp was about 25 mm. Polypectomy was done by snar base and diluted epinephrine was injected submucosally and in to the stem and polyp removed completely. The initial endoscopic diagnosis was hyperplastic polyp without any significant complication. However, histological evaluation confirmed the final diagnosis of Gastritis cystica polyposa.

Gastritis cystic polyposa/profunda (GCP) is defined as a hyperplastic polyp that contains foci of misplaced foveolar and/or glandular epithelium in the muscularis mucosae or in the deeper portions of the submucosa or the muscularis propria [1-6]. The lesion called polyposa when an intraluminal polyp is present [1,2] and profunda when the cystic lesion located within the submucosa [3] and the bu...
