[Inflammatory fibroid polyp as the cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding.]
Abstract:
The inflammatory fibroid polyp or Vanek's tumor is a benign polypoid lesion that can be found in any section of the digestive tract. It is most frequently located in the stomach and when found in this organ, the symptoms include upper gastrointestinal bleeding (often silent), anemia and melena. The case described below, on the contrary, presents a gastric inflammatory fibroid polyp which developed acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding and required surgical treatment.
