Histologic Assessment of Duodenal Polyps and the Utility of Deeper Levels

The other histopathologies encountered in "duodenal polyps" consisted of peptic duodenitis (32 polyps; 13.3%), Brunner gland hyperplasia (27 polyps; 11.2%), gastric heterotopia (18 polyps; 7.5%), hyperplastic/hamartomatous polyps (5 polyps; 2.1%), well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors...

Description
Summary:The other histopathologies encountered in "duodenal polyps" consisted of peptic duodenitis (32 polyps; 13.3%), Brunner gland hyperplasia (27 polyps; 11.2%), gastric heterotopia (18 polyps; 7.5%), hyperplastic/hamartomatous polyps (5 polyps; 2.1%), well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (3 polyps; 1.2%), and follicular lymphoma (1 polyp; 0.4%). [...]these should be considered when the initial sections show no pathologic alteration. © American Society for Clinical Pathology Am J Clin Pathol 2015;144:
