    Atypical mesenchymal cells in hyperplastic gastric polyps can mimic malignancies. These activated cells, potentially linked to trauma, disappear after polypectomy, aiding differential diagnosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Pathology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Hyperplastic gastric polyps can present with unusual cellular features.
    • Distinguishing these polyps from malignancies is crucial for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the histological findings of atypical mesenchymal cells in hyperplastic gastric polyps.
    • To evaluate the diagnostic challenges and clinical behavior of these cells.

    Main Methods:

    • Histological examination of six hyperplastic gastric polyp cases.
    • Analysis of cellular morphology, mitotic figures, and transition to granulation tissue.
    • Correlation with clinical data, including biopsy type and follow-up.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Six cases showed atypical mesenchymal cells with nuclear pleomorphism and mitotic figures in eroded polyp heads.
    • These cells showed transition to granulation tissue, suggesting activation.
    • Cells persisted after excisional biopsy but were undetectable after endoscopic polypectomy.

    Conclusions:

    • The atypical mesenchymal cells represent activated mesenchymal cells, not malignancy.
    • Traumatic factors, especially in cardia polyps, may contribute to their presence.
    • Differential diagnosis from malignancies is important, particularly with excisional biopsies.
