title: [Hyperplastic polyposis of a gastrojejunal anastomosis].
abstract: Only two cases of hyperplastic polyposis of the gastrojejunal anastomosis are reported in the literature. Reference is made to a personal case with singular clinical and diagnostic features, stress being laid on the endoscopic appearance of the multiple polyps encircling the anastomotic line. The risk of malignancy is negligible and endoscopic excision is the rational step. If histobiotic definition is impossible, destructive surgery should follow.
