[Glandular cysts of gastric mucosa, a new gastroenterological entity (author's transl)]. 1977

G Gohrband, and K Krentz

Two cases are reported with polypoid changes of the corpus mucosa of the stomach. X-ray and endoscopic diagnosis was: gastric polyposis. On histological examination cystic changes of the mucosal glands could be detected. These cases were followed up for 7 years; no change occurred during this period until finally the "polyps" disappeared. Localization in the corpus area and easiness of endoscopic polypectomy, as well as the cystic pattern of the mucosa are typical for these "glandular cysts". This condition was unknown up to now or was not diagnosed correctly, this entity not having been delineated yet nosologically.

D005753	Gastric Mucosa	Lining of the STOMACH, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. The surface cells produce MUCUS that protects the stomach from attack by digestive acid and enzymes. When the epithelium invaginates into the LAMINA PROPRIA at various region of the stomach (CARDIA; GASTRIC FUNDUS; and PYLORUS), different tubular gastric glands are formed. These glands consist of cells that secrete mucus, enzymes, HYDROCHLORIC ACID, or hormones.
