[Glandular polyps of the stomach].
Gastric polyps, either solitary or multiple, have been studied in 14 cases. Three of these lesions were benign, two gave evidence of some cellular atypism, six were carcinomas in situ and three were invasive carcinomas. All but one of the transformed polyps were over 1.5 cm. in diameter. The lesions were associated with other primary carcinomas in two patients, and one patient had benign polyposis and pernicious anemia. If only the glandular polyps are included in the material, it is the authors' impression that gastric polyps are of interest and importance as precancerous lesions and should be dealt with as such.
