title: Multiple hyperplastic inflammatory polyps complicating quiescent ulcerative colitis.
abstract: A patient with well-controlled and currently asymptomatic ulcerative colitis had II unusually large polypoid lesions in his colon demonstrated by barium enema X-ray examination and colonoscopy. Previous histological descriptions of inflammatory polyps did not adequately describe their morphology, and the term "hyperplastic inflammatory polyp" is suggested.
