Abstract
In a 4 yr follow-up study of 68 patients with pernicious anemia gastric polyps were observed in 25 patients. In some patients the polyps seemed to vanish completely from one year to another, while they might ascend or increase in other patients. None of these polyps underwent malignant transformation during the period of observation, and by histological examination they could be classified as non-neoplastic regenerative benign polyps in an atrophic gastric mucosa. The surgical attitude to these non-neoplastic gastric polyps in pernicious anemia should be restrictive.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
