Abstract
|
|
|
Gastric adenoma is a precancerous lesion. While some adenomas regress spontaneously, others progress as invasive carcinomas. Simple follow-up of gastric adenoma may be possible considering the possibility of spontaneous regression. However, several studies have reported discrepancies between the results of endoscopic forceps biopsies and post-resection biopsies. These studies showed that the pathological findings are more severe in biopsies performed after endoscopic resections. We suggest that endoscopic resections should be planned for cases of gastric adenoma. After endoscopic resection, regular endoscopic surveillance and Helicobacter pylori eradication may reduce the occurrence of gastric cancer.
