'''Inflammatory fibroid polyp''' is an uncommon [[gastrointestinal polyp]].
 
==General==
*Benign.
*Through-out GI tract.
*Can be thought of as granulation tissue-like.<ref name=Ref_DCHH138/>

*Proliferating spindle cells (fibroid) - '''key feature'''.
**Loosely arranged, concentrically, around blood vessels.<ref name=Ref_GLP115>{{Ref GLP|115}}</ref>
**Perivascular hypocellular zones.<ref name=Ref_DCHH138>{{Ref DCHH|138}}</ref>
*Inflammation:
**Eosinophils - often prominent.
*+/-Leiomyoma/schwannoma-like areas - with nuclear palisading.<ref name=Ref_DCHH138>{{Ref DCHH|138}}</ref>
*+/-Vascular for fibrous tissue.
*Poorly circumscribed/infiltrates into the lamina propria.
 
DDx:
*[[Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour]].
*[[GIST]] - usually sharply demarcated border.
