Gastric fundic gland polyps: a morphological study including mucin histochemistry, stereometry, and MIB-1 immunohistochemistry
RD Odze, MA Marcial, D Antonioli - Human pathology, 1996 - Elsevier
Fundic gland polyps are benign lesions, composed of a disorderly arrangement of normal
gastric corpus cell types, that occur in a large proportion of patients with familial
adenomatous polyposis (FAP) but also develop sporadically in non-FAP patients as well. In
this study, the authors evaluated and compared the endoscopic, histological, mucin
histochemical, and microscopic stereologic features of 77 fundic gland polyps (FGPs)(15
FAP; 62 non-FAP) to determine if FAP-associated and sporadic lesions are histologically …
