[Hyperplasiogenic polyps and risk of stomach cancer].

In 731 hyperplasiogenic polyps which have been removed by endoscopical polypectomy there were 9 polyps with an early cancer and 8 polyps with severe dysplasias (borderline lesions) as well as 1 polyp, in which an advanced carcinoma has been developed. This is the outstanding greatest number of hyperplasiogenic polyps with a malignant transformation. In addition in 9 patients with hyperplasiogenic polyps carcinomas could be discovered, i.e. a rate for malignant developments of 3.7%. It seems that stomachs with multiple polyps are endangered in particular. The recurrence rate of follow-up examinations covering a period of up to 8 years was 36.1%.

[Relations between stomach polyps and stomach cancer--results of follow-up after endoscopic polypectomy].

We report on 468 polypectomies on 303 patients in 23,260 gastroscopies. In 230 endoscopic follow-up controls on 129 patients 4 carcinomas are found, and that once after a hyperplastic polyp and thrice after hyperplasiogenic polyps. In comparison to our routine gastroscopies the number of the carcinomas is distinctly lower in the control of polyps, so that the hyperplasiogenic polyps in our gastroscopies do not represent a particular risk group for a carcinoma of the stomach. After polypectomy should be controlled: adenimas, polyps with severe dysplasias, hyperplasiogenic polyposes and stomachs in which polyps remained.

[Therapeutic aspects of endoscopic polypectomy].

466 endoscopic polypectomies of the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract were analysed according to their curative value. In 254 removed polyps of the upper gastrointestinal tract the result of the histological examination was twice a proof of a carcinoma. One it had to be after-resected, once a carcinoid, five times bleeding polyps were removed. Four times prolapsing gastric polyps were removed in the bulbus duodeni. In these cases intermittent disturbances of the passage could be repaired. Thus the endoscopic polypectomy in the upper gastrointestinal tract was of therapeutic value in 4.3%. In the lower intestinal tract in 204 polypectomies 16 focal carcinomas or invasive carcinomas removed in the healthy tissue, 1 carcinoid and 98 bleeding adenomas were cut away. Thus the coloscopic polypectomy was connected with a therapeutic use in 56.3%. 81.8% of the polyps was tubular, papillary or villous adenomas. Taking into consideration the "adenoma-cancer-sequence", the coloscopic polypectomy must thus be regarded as a prophylactic and curative method, while in the polypectomy in the upper gastrointestinal tract the diagnostic value is in the first place.

[The value of fiber gastroscopy and targeted gastrobiopsy in the diagnosis of stomach ulcers and tumors].

In 2,000 patients the fiber-gastroscopic and bioptic findings were tested with the help of control examinations, results of operations and course observations. Here the fibergastroscopic diagnosis tumour was confirmed in 89.4%. 13 times a wrong diagnosis of tumour was made. Here different substrates were in question (ventricular ulcers, polypous hyperblastic mucous membrane and others). 11 carcinomas were gastroscopically not recognized as tumour. In 25 cases (20%) of the histological investigation of bioptically taken tissue did not result in a confirmation of the fiber-gastroscopic diagnosis of tumour. But 19 times of them the histology was falsely negative. The supplementation of the gastroscopy by biopsy resulted in a right diagnosis in 93.6%. By control examinations a further increase of the accuracy to 96.8% could be reached.
