    A rare polyp-fold complex was diagnosed in a man with abdominal discomfort after vomiting. This finding at the gastroesophageal junction is not always linked to reflux esophagitis.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology and Endoscopy
    • Pathology of the Upper Gastrointestinal Tract

    Background:

    • The polyp-fold complex at the gastroesophageal junction is an uncommon condition.
    • Previous hypotheses suggested a strong association with reflux esophagitis.

    Observation:

    • A 51-year-old male presented with abdominal discomfort following prolonged vomiting.
    • Diagnostic imaging and subsequent examination revealed a polyp-fold complex at the gastroesophageal junction.

    Findings:

    • The diagnosis of an esophagogastric polyp-fold complex was established.
    • This specific case demonstrated that the condition is not invariably associated with reflux esophagitis.

    Implications:

    • Challenges the established understanding of the etiology of esophagogastric polyp-fold complexes.

  • Suggests further research is needed to elucidate the pathophysiology and diagnostic criteria.
  • Highlights the importance of considering differential diagnoses in patients with upper gastrointestinal symptoms.
