We present a rare case of a benign fibroepithelial polyp of the renal pelvis in a patient with familial adenomatous polyposis. In our paper we describe a new minimally invasive technique developed in our unit using an amplatz goose neck snare via a percutaneous nephroscope sheath in the management of the benign fibroepithelial polyp of the renal pelvis and present a current review of management...

Hairy polyp is an unusual, rare benign developmental malformation of neonates and infants. Embryologically, they are lesions containing both ectodermal mesodermal origin. Based on size, location the lesion, can produce symptoms such as feeding difficulties, airway obstructions, apneic episodes. We present a case hairy at Oro/Nasopharynx causing difficulties immediately after birth. explained mo...

dent ulcerative colitis had been treated with tacrolimus therapy. He underwent colonoscopy to evaluate the therapeutic effect of the tacrolimus therapy. Endoscopic examination revealed complete mucosal healing throughout the entire colon. However, a pedunculated polyp, 10mm in size, which exhibited superficial areas of ulceration on its surface, was detected at the sigmoid colon (●" Fig. 1). Th...

The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a common site of presentation of extranodal lymphomas, although primary GI lymphomas account for only 5% to 10% of primary GI neoplasms. The majority of cases occur in the stomach; only approximately 10% occur in the colorectum. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common type of GI tract lymphoma [1]. An asymptomatic 55-year-old man was referred for endo...

A 73-year old man presented with dysphagia for liquid and solid food. Barium contrast study of the esophagus and esophagoscopy demonstrated a fibrovascular polyp. This, almost 10 cm benign esophageal tumor, was removed surgically by a cervical esophagotomy. A fibrovascular polyp is a rare benign tumor of the esophagus, which, however, may give serious complications as asphyxia resulting from la...
