Author's experience about 70 endoscopic polipectomy of high gastrointestinal tract, realized on 53 patients during 1978-1983 period was evaluated. Esophaguel polyps incidence was 0.06% among 7.900 endoscopic studies; gastric polyps was 0.8% and duodenal was 0.03%. Diagnosis was radiologically suspected in 58%. Gastric antrum was the predominant localization (45.7%) and macroscopic Yamada types IV (32.8%) and III (30.0%) were found more frequently. Most of patients presented solitary polips (86.7%). 63.2% of pieces were under 10 mm in size and 35.2% between 10 - 20 mm. High frecuency of adenomas (23.5%) and a low one of hyperplasiogenic (7.3%) was the prominent finding; only one case of early gastric cancer was founded (1.5%). Neither adenoms or hyperplasiogenic polyps were founded on gastric fundus, and no direct relation between size and histopatologic type was observed. Only one hemorragic complication (1.4%) was present. Polips incidence on 800 consecutive auptopsy protocols in adults was 0.12%.
