Two cases of multiple gastric polyps.
Two cases of multiple gastric polyps are described. In both cases a large number of hyperplastic polyps were found in the antrum and body of the stomach. A total gastrectomy was performed in these two patients. Histologically the polyps were benign; in one case gastritis with metaplasia was present. The pathological and clinical aspects of multiple gastric polyps are discussed with reference to the literature.
