1 No Association Between Gastric Fundic Gland Polyps and Gastrointestinal Neoplasia in a Study of Over 100,000 Patients  Robert M. Genta, Christopher M. Schuler, Cristian I. Robiou, Richard H. Lash  Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology  Volume 7, Issue 8, Pages (August 2009) DOI: /j.cgh Copyright © 2009 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 (A) Fundic gland polyp (magnification 4×): Numerous microcystic glands are noted in an irregularly expanded oxyntic mucosa. The surface epithelium is smooth, with short foveolae. (B) At higher power (magnification 20×) one can appreciate that the microcysts are lined by budding parietal cells (arrows), chief cells, and mucous cells. There is virtually no inflammation in the lamina propria. Hematoxylin and eosin stains.
