COMMENT: | |||
Sixteen fundic gland polyps are identified on microscopy. At least forty polypoid lesions | |||
were seen at the time of grossing. | |||
Fundic gland polyps are reported in association with proton pump inhibitor use and in | |||
association with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). The possibility of FAP should be | |||
investigated. | |||
