Abstract

Polyps are the most frequent benign tumours, being found in 3% of symptomatic patients subjected to upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Hyperplastic polyps are the most common form (85%). Adenomatous polyps account for less than 5% and mesenchymal ones constitute 10% of the total. Multiple or diffuse polyps are unusual.
