Abstract:
A 52-year-old woman was diagnosed with cap polyposis (CP) with characteristic clinical, endoscopic, and histological features. By avoiding straining at defecation, her symptoms improved temporarily, however recrudesced. She was diagnosed with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, and received eradication therapy successfully. After this eradication therapy, her symptoms and colonoscopic findings recovered completely. Only two reports in the English language literature have discussed the relationship between CP and eradication therapy for H. pylori, all patients achieved complete recovery. We recommend H. pylori testing for all cases of CP and H. pylori eradication therapy if necessary.
